The Michael Building Downtown Luxury Apartments

ignore the sound of the city -Floor/Ceiling is thinner than the walls -Hard wood floors and exposed brick amplifies the sound from neighboring units. -Barking dogs with no accountability -Incompetent management -Appliances not regularly maintained I.e. dishwasher packed with mysterious orange sludge that prevented normal operation. -Elevator sounds like it’s going to fall apart and was making error messages for a month but was left in operation. (Management solution, -don’t get stuck without your phone-) Brilliant… -Front doors are heavy and spring loaded so you can hear everyone’s door slam wether they mean to or not. -Terrible street-only, metered parking( there are only 4 secure parking spots for tenants, but you can be put on a waiting list with the other 13 units. Which you still pay extra for) -The entire block is a hotbed for drug activity and screaming homeless people. Could be a pro if you’re a fan of heroine and watching people screaming and throwing fits outside your window. -If your upstairs neighbor gets up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night you can follow their footsteps from one room to the next. Due to the amplification effect these units have, on multiple occasions I have thought someone was in my apartment besides myself. This can be very anxiety inducing. I could go on and on about the amount of noise these apartments let in but hopefully this will save you months of sleepless nights or interrupted time with your partner. We have filled complaints, confronted neighbors, begged for solutions and we’re accused of harassment and it was suggested that legal action would be taken if we “complained again”. Very surreal situation actually, being gaslit by your landlord. Cannot recommend this building to anyone and I wish we never lived here.
