having to pay much more money to Comcast to drill holes in walls, run wiring, etc.) to failing to fix windows / screens to pieces of the bathrooms completely coming apart (e.g., towel racks, lights, shower poles) to low-quality kitchens (e.g., no disposal, low end appliances that barely work) to too expensive washer / dryers in the creepy basement that suck at doing what they're supposed to, this place is already falling apart and they reopened less than a year ago. - Heating system is completely messed up. You have no control over your own heat and it's either 90 or 55 degrees at any point in time. There is never a comfortable setting and it's a constant problem. - General upkeep of the area around the building that is definitely still in their jurisdiction is disgusting. For example, there have been heaps of trash, including mattresses and wood crates, sitting next to the dumpster for months, the grassy area between buildings is full of trash, debris, etc. I'm afraid to let my dog "go" there as I think he'll impale himself on a rod sticking up from the ground or something absurd. - They really let the parking in the back alley get out of hand. There are cars everywhere that are apparently allowed to be there, but are taking up so much space - double- and triple-parking people in is the norm in order to let cohabitants have more spots. It ends up being just a cluster back there. - I'll echo the other reviewer's concern about safety. Listen, it's on the edge of Loring Park so there is only so much that we can blame on the management, but I agree that they could do MUCH better to help us out. I moved in with sub-par windows that had broken or no screens and questionable locking capabilities, the buzzer on the front door doesn't do anything for you (calls your phone, you can't actually buzz people in), etc. There's actually not a day that I don't regret moving here from another apartment in the city. Patiently waiting for my lease to be up.

holes in certain walls from unfinished repairs, broken window screens, and chipped bathtubs, etc. The safety at this location is questionable, as it was reported that a stranger entered someone's apt and stole their apartment keys. As a result, the front entry door locked had to be replaced and we were issued new keys. I also spotted someone squatting in the basement one night. I honestly question my safety here and would never recommend it. Do yourself a favor and stay away!

professionalism. There are also several renovations to the building that remain uncompleted such as the heating system, holes in the walls, chipped bathtubs, broken windows screens, and the list goes on. The location is also not secure/safe at times, as it was reported that someone unlawfully entered someone's apartment and stole their door keys. As a result, the property manager had to install new locks and replace everyone's front door keys. I question my safety here and can't wait to move out.
