Makers Rise

Unfortunately, moving into this building was a big mistake for me. I recommend to avoid it. - Construction dust in apartment: All the carpets in my apartment, and presumably in others throughout the building, are deeply saturated with construction dust. Prior to moving in, I explicitly communicated my concerns regarding several dust allergies in an email, requesting a thorough cleaning of the apartment, which wasn’t obviously done. I invested in a professional-grade vacuum cleaner, which cost $300, but even after vacuuming the entire apartment three times with this equipment, the dust remains pervasive. My efforts to maintain a clean and healthy living environment have been thwarted by the sheer amount of residual construction dust. I approached the management with a request for carpet replacement, hoping it would alleviate the issue, but this request was denied, leaving me in a challenging and uncomfortable living situation. Given these conditions, individuals with dust allergies should avoid this place to prevent exacerbating their health issues. - Fetch: Amazon, FedEx, and UPS can't access the building directly. Instead, we're forced to use the Fetch service, adding an unnecessary layer and resulting in delays and lost packages. This is absolutely useless service, a layer between residents and carriers, google it first. Packages delayed every time, sometimes they lose packages. My package was lost during my first week of my residency. I spent a few days chasing it and trying to locate it. I wasted a lot of my time! - Noise: The building's thin walls significantly compromise privacy and tranquility. This lack of sound insulation means that everyday noises from neighboring apartments, such as conversations and the sound of dogs barking, are easily heard within my unit. Additionally, a persistent issue with the ventilation system results in constant knocking sounds, which occur permanently even throughout the night and early morning hours, at times like 2am, 3am, 5am etc. This disturbance has made it necessary for me to use earplugs as the only means to achieve uninterrupted sleep. Despite raising this issue and filing a service request, I was informed that the problem cannot be resolved, and thus will be a permanent fixture of living here. To add to the disturbance, each morning at 7am, the loud noise of a garbage truck, which resembles the sound of an explosion, further disrupts the peace, marking an unwelcome start to the day. Avoid it!
