Loring Park Flats Apartamentos

look cleaner and be easier to maintain. I can only speak for my own unit, but mine is relatively updated and I plan to continue making it feel even more like home. I did ask the leasing office about residents’ concerns regarding cockroaches and mice. They insisted most issues were caused by dirty tenants, which may be true in some cases. However, leaking pipes on B1 — and likely in other areas as well — are causing drips and possible mold concerns that clearly need more attention. Another issue is the underground parking garage. Residents pay extra for it, but some people treat it like a common area and leave trash around. That should definitely be addressed and enforced better. Management did mention they recently started weekly pest-control sprays for cockroaches every Wednesday. I personally haven’t seen any pests yet, but I figured it was worth mentioning. There is also nighttime security that patrols the building. Honestly, it startled me the first time I came home late from the bar, but I do appreciate the added security presence because it helps keep the building quiet and feels safer overall. Lastly, please fix the fire panel/box downstairs near the vending machines. It’s showing a “low battery” warning, which means the backup battery is either low or dead. If the power were to go out and the system failed, residents may not receive proper fire alerts. That’s a serious safety concern and should be addressed immediately. Overall, if you’re okay with living in an older building, it’s not a bad place at all. Most of the tenants I’ve encountered have been friendly, and despite a few maintenance concerns, my experience so far has been positive.

for a drink or snack in the night and see them scurry across the counter and underneath its edge. Though I put traps around and it’s always clean they still like to wander to the farther corners of my apartment, just to die. The neighborhood is not bad, but it has gotten a little more active than it was when I moved in. There are two new shot spotters within a few blocks. The fire alarm and police sirens are always coming to visit at random times throughout the days as well. My floor is a main contributor to this and it tends to get very loud on holidays or weekends. There has been new property management since I started my lease and there has been some improvements such as the elevators and stairs being so dirty. The elevators on the south side of the building are usually operable, if not there is another on the north side and there are a few staircases. There are no entryway cameras as people have destroyed or stolen them, packages constantly go missing and get stolen. So I would not recommend sending your packages to this address, unless you will be there when it arrives. The maintenance man is very attentive, but I believe that there is a maintenance fee each time you put in a work order now. Aside from all that’s listed above as long as you keep your space clean, set out some traps and maybe cover wall openings you should be fine. I would not live here if you would like a peaceful, cleanly, and quiet building however.

the entry ways. People steal things out of the laundry room all the time. When the homeless aren't living in the vacant rooms or utility closets, they can be found in the entry ways and tend to leave their belongings there once they leave for the day. They also threaten to harm tenants when begging for money. BUT DONT BOTHER NOTIFYING MANAGEMENT. It took three days and multiple calls from many residents for them to come do anything about the homeless people who were living in the utility closet next to my door and empty apartment down the hall. When management came, they came without law enforcement and left before the people exited the complex because they were scared. Besides handling on site problems poorly, management also doesn't know how to handle money, send an email, or make a phone call. When I gave them my money order, they ended up depositing my $1000 order for the incorrect amount, never notified me of their screw up, and assessed me late fees. When I reached out to inquire about the problem, none of the staff could tell me what was wrong and kept referring me to one staff member. I was told multiple times this person would call me but rarely were those calls received. Most of the emails I sent about the issue were not answered until I visited the office in person (during a pandemic and when it was supposed to be closed to the public) and when a response was made they said they would have the issue fixed by the afternoon. It wasn't. 0/10. DO NOT RECOMMEND
