Should be called the ParaPOOP Factory

It seems painfully obvious that River City employees are posting these optimistic reviews and it is truly sad. All in the same day' So incognito....
I will give you the real skinny on this downtown inferno.
THE WALLS ARE PAPER THIN. My next door neighbors alarm would constantly go off at 5am and it was so loud that it sounded as if it was in my own room. One day when she was away, her alarm kept ringing non-stop, it drove me mad! As for the neighboor above me, she wore high heels and I could hear her clicking away all day long. I could also hear her using the plunger when she clogged her toilet as well as other intimate and personal moments that should be kept private if you know what I mean.
ITS A DUNGEON. Upon moving into my modern brick exposed place, I didn't really notice that there was only one window in the whole two bedroom apartment and that it was facing a brick wall. You never really notice how much you miss sunlight in your life until it's gone. I'd walk into the apartment in the middle of the day and it was literally pitch black! It really made me feel down and confined, not to mention it killed my plants! Oh, and the obvious raise in the utility bill because of the lack of natural light.
WATER SMELLS OF ROTTEN EGGS. It was really gross to wash your dishes or your face and smell the fart like sulfer creep out of the pipes. I don't know what causes this, but it stunk!
THE PARAPOOP FACTORY. I'm a dog lover myself, and so is just about everyone else in this building. Tenants were really irresponsible and would let their massive dogs poop and pee in the halls and would not clean it up. Others would leave notes to the inconsiderate tenants next to the dog poop. No lie it would stay there for DAYS. People would also leave there garbage bags outside their doors, adding to the wonderful smell of feces and hot garbage in the halls.
PS. if you want a happy home for your furry friend, this is not the place. The grass outside is very limited due to the industrial neighborhood.
A POOP CLOUD. Up the street from the Parachute Factory is a water treatment facility center. To say the least there is a steady wafting cloud of fart smell that smacks you in the face ever so often. It will definitely wake you up in the morning.
I'm so ecstatic that my lease is up and I no longer have to live in a poop cloud. Best advice: DON'T MOVE HERE!
