In the six months to a year that my girlfriend has rented a place here, I have come to hate this place. This place seems to be a poorly maintained dump. Aside from its deteriorating physical appearance, the power has gone out for the entire building on Thanksgiving Day weekend (2010) without warning even though apparently there was power to every other building and house, street light, etc. around. In addition, water to most of building went out without warning for most of the weekend sometime this spring (2011). And the management has a draconian towing policy that will drive your visitors nuts. It doesn t matter if the visitor lot is empty, and it is the middle of the night on the weekend, and you are trying to move in, they will tow your, and/or your guest s car if you don t immediately (and I mean immediately) register with the one guy who is (usually) at the front desk (when he's awake) and get a parking pass. I actually saw, with my own eyes, a PIZZA DELIVERY TRUCK GET TOWED. And while I was at the impound lot picking up my car (which is by the Ballston Mall, incidentally), I saw the towing company bring in a TAXI CAB (the car driver came in and complained that he had only run inside for a few moments to inform the customer that he was there). It appears that the tow truck driver camps out there at the building waiting for the slightest excuse to tow someone, in an apparent revenue generating scheme (perhaps that is why a free parking space on the narrow & busy streets nearby is always so hard to find). And this building is on the edge of a bad, industrial neighborhood (but don't take my word for it -- just drive down Four Mile Run in the dark and see for yourself). I almost forgot to add that the elevators seem to be unreliable. It is a really long wait when only one elevator (out of the three near the lobby) is in service (on July 2, 2011).
