16 Bennett Apartments

okay. I was promised I would receive my garage clicker and keys on my kitchen island on the day of move in. (okay cool) ... Fast forward to move in day. I arrived at the apartment and upon entering the building I was greeted by the table in the lobby completely filled with MAIL. What a complete turn off to know that this is how my personal business will be just left out for everyone to see even though EVERYONE IS ASSIGNED A MAILBOX. I was told the mail was for residents who no longer live there but then later told that it WAS a mixture of both residents that live there as well and those who moved out. (NOT A GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION). On the way to my unit the hallways smelled like popcorn and I was told that it was some sort of air freshener a resident puts out (Im not sure how that is okay but fine). Walking towards my unit there were ripped up pieces of paper all on the floor like confetti and marks on the wall. Remember guys we are still talking about a "LuXUrY bUiLdInG". I opened my apartment door and was COMPLETELY DISGUSTED !!!! Bathroom The tub was black and FILTHY. The paint on the wall on the bathroom was peeled off. The ceiling was cracked with visible water damage that indicates there was a leak that has been present for quite some time and has gone unrepaired. Kitchen The dishwasher was dirty with dried up what I will assume to be food. The oven was dirty with several stains. The fridge was empty however, the surface space was also dirty. Washer & Dryer There was a dirty cloth placed between the pipeline connected to the washer machine and the hose which was also covering up a hole. 4. Bedroom - The walls were dirty with plaster along with visible scuffs. It was obvious there was no paint job done prior to my move in date. 5. Living/Dining - All of the walls in the unit including the doors were scuffed and not cleaned. The living/ Dining area also had plaster. The windowsill was clearly broken and left on the floor.

paper thin and you can easily hear your neighbours. Packages are left in the lobby on the floor and gets stolen by both insiders & outsiders. They have package lockers but no one except sometimes UPS uses it. The property is very ill-maintained. You will often find dog pee/poop in the elevators; hallways filled with smell of marijuana. There have been many robbery incidents. One of the garage doors was broken for months and used to be wide open for robbers to walk-in and steal the bikes & your belongings. One of the tenants rented his apt on Airbnb to a group of teens for partying. They drank & puked all over the hallway in the middle of the night that cops had to be called-in. They have a tiny gym and its thermostat is locked so you need to send multiple emails to get it adjusted due to the changing weather. They have shuttle service between JSQ, West Side & 16Bennett for every 30 mins between 6:30AM-9AM & 5PM-7:30PM but it never goes to west-side and never keeps up with the schedule. If you miss it by a minute; good luck waiting for ~40 mins in the freezing cold. Shuttle driver follows own schedule & deliberately skips the trips. The driver & property mgr work in tandem. They have new building coming up across the street but if its going to be run by same mgmt; i am sure that your experience wont be any different.

because it was broken and management thought it was a solid idea to essentially just bungee cord it shut. No worries though, the people with the knife came into the building since it’s not secure. The property manager is easily the most incompetent human. She won’t answer emails. There’s no number to call where someone other than her will pick up (if she even does pick up). I wish I never moved into this literal hell hole.
