Resident 2003 - 2005

8/16/2005

I have lived here for over 2 years and I don't have really anything good to say about this place.<br><br>For the past 2 1/2 months, they have been re-doing the walkways and the noise from the construction is maddening. They still have at least 2 more months of this and the walkways still look horrible.<br><br>The pool is a joke. Not heated and dirty all the time.<br><br>The "fitness center" is also a big joke. It is an old sationary bike, a tiny home gym, and a broken treadmill. I would never go into the sauna even if my life depended on it because I am sure it has never been sanitized.<br><br>The elevator is broken on average 2 days per month for one reason or another and so is the "secure" garage door. Because of the garage door problem, lately, cars have been broken into inside the garage.<br><br>The laundry room has 4 washers and 4 dryers. They work most of the time.<br><br>As for this being a "security building", this is false. When we moved in, a person outside would have to ring your apartment and you would "buzz" them up through your phone. However, the door buzzer has been broken for over a year and everyone, their friends, the newspaper guy, the pizza guy...they all know the "secret code" to open the front door now.<br><br>The building being right next door to a bar on Broadway (the 36/36 Club) is an issue with the security and especially the noise from loud, drunk bar people every single night at 2 AM.<br><br>The rent is high for what you get. The carpet is stained beyond beilif and they will not replace it. New renters get new carpet and two-toned paint...but old renters get their rent raised for nothing done to up keep the inside of our old and shabby apartments.<br><br>At least there is a parking garage. But don't think of having friends over in the evening or they will have to park 2-3 blocks away.
