I'm sharing this review so others can make an informed decision before signing a lease. This is not…read morewritten out of anger or exaggeration -- it reflects my real experience living in this building.
There are positives. The apartments are well designed, the common spaces are attractive, and the on-site residential staff is generally friendly and professional. Unfortunately, those positives were overshadowed by serious safety issues and a complete lack of accountability.
During my time living here, a homeless man was able to live on my residential floor for several weeks without being noticed or removed. This only came to light after residents reported stolen personal property. As a resident, this was extremely unsettling and raised serious concerns about building security and access control.
On a separate occasion, a man who appeared to be under the influence of drugs entered the building lobby and passed out in a common seating area. Again, this raised concerns about who is able to freely access the building and how these situations are handled.
There were also ongoing maintenance issues. Hot water in the bathroom was limited, with showers turning cold after about ten minutes. Although heating is individually controlled, it did not function reliably, and my apartment often failed to reach the temperature set on the thermostat.
The most disturbing part of my experience involved one of the building's owners, Dean Adler, following a car accident in the building's garage for which he was at fault. During this interaction, his behavior was aggressive and intimidating. He used derogatory language toward me, including racial slurs, and made statements that were threatening and demeaning. He also attempted to evict me on the spot, despite having no legal basis to do so and outside of any formal process.
Being spoken to in that way by an owner of the building was shocking, inappropriate, and deeply upsetting. No resident should ever be treated like that.
What made this worse was the complete lack of accountability afterward. I reported both the accident and Mr. Adler's behavior to building management. To date, no meaningful action has been taken. There was no follow-up, no acknowledgment of the seriousness of what occurred, and no effort to address resident safety or hold ownership accountable.
Despite raising concerns through the proper channels, I ultimately felt unheard, unsupported, and unsafe. For these reasons, I would not recommend this building to anyone who values safety, accountability, and being treated with basic respect.
I'm sharing this for transparency and awareness so others can decide for themselves.
RESPONSE TO BELOW:
1. The team has NOT been in constant contact with me. They respond if I reach out. But nothing was proactively/reactively done that I was made aware of.
2. The "transient" was sleeping in a vacant room right next to my apartment. Management was made aware of this. Since the incident, the room has been locked and safety reassurance emails were sent only to residents who directly reported the issue.
3. I reported an issue with hot water. With heat, I'm moving, so no need to even go through the hassle.
