Wow. Management must be in second heaven!!
They evicted all of the artists and Broadway folks, for hi paying wall street types. Those pioneers built the first grocery store in the area. They erected the first dog walk. Then management told them to take a walk! Wow!
They're not missing anything. Management never allowed their children to play outside. They were trying to be a part of the regentrification process, so they started calling the cops on the little kids to keep them inside. After all, yuppies don't like children. The sight of children at play could cause serious economic damage
to the landlord.
But they have it just the way they want it.
Happy hour drunks stagger up and down the street on this brand new Vegas strip. The "Tombs" (the local prison) is right around the corner. So those just released at night wander the area begging for Metrocards and cigarettes. These dumb yuppies, give them money and STILL get robbed!
The parking is a sick joke. The parking attendant hates anyone who has a car and a life, so he keys your paint job and with a sick grin on his face, then he points to a sign that says Not Responsible for Damage, Loss or Theft to your vehicle.
If you ask him how it happened, he starts screaming at the top of his lungs "Help me, Police!" For this, you pay $500.00 per month.
There is a huge obnoxious woman in the office, who wears a crooked wig, mini skirts
and plastic boots. She evicted hundreds of families to keep her meager job, so watch out! She'll throw you out on your rear even if she has to lie about rent payments. Just let someone come along that will pay a little more for your apartment and you're gone like the wind. Her boots were definitely made for walking!
The cast of characters goes on.
The super tells you he doesn't know why mice are scratching and scrambling to get OUT of your bath tub in the middle of the night. He doesn't even know where they're coming from. Could it be from the refrigerator he brought up from the basement,completely frost free with a built in rats nest underneath' Maybe that's the same place the giant waterbugs come from that dash across the floor while you're watching TV at lightening speed!
He'll tell you, "Don't worry about the waterbugs, they are little exterminators, they eat roaches." Well, I guess they're going for roaches on the ceiling, 'cause I've definitely seen a few of these suckers FLY from one room to the other!!
Remember to shake out your boots or shoes before you put them on. I'll spare you the details. It's just too gory. Rats carry rabies!
This Management is so greedy, they fired a security staff that had been on the premises for nearly 30 years. They hired THUGS, and when those thugs began threatening the tenants, they thought it would be a good idea to bring the former guards back.
One of my neighbors had such a stench in the apartment. We tried air fresheners, incense, everything. It got worse as the summer approached. It was the funkiest thing you ever smelled. It smelled like a corpse. It turned out that it was corpses.
Rat corpses, decaying in the wall. The heat made it worse. A private electrician came to see why her lights kept going on and off, only to discover all those decaying corpses in the kitchen wall.
It seems to me that location is not the most important thing you can offer a paying tenant. Sixty thousand dollars a year is still a down payment on a decent condo.
Take your business elsewhere. Someone will
bend over backwards to make you comfortable, not act as though they're doing ou a favor by letting you live there. Well, in reality, they are doing you a favor, 'cause if you ever complain to them, you'll be history. You'd better take it and pay with a smile. The only other choice you have is to walk on by....

Is the miserable woman Debbie Dolan? She should have been fired as she was taking kick-backs from people who were subletting, but somehow she kept her job while others were fired. That woman is on a gigantic power trip.
