Parking can be a hit or miss if you visiting and on occasions another resident can block your own parking space or make it hard for you to park.

I am writing to address concerns in regards to safety in River Towers and managements lack of…read moreresponse and acknowledgment. I have lived in the River Towers community since 1999, with that being said I have contacted the management office more times over the last year than I have in the last 22 years combined. Each time I have contacted River Towers has been in regards to safety concerns. These matters have included but are not limited to ongoing elevator malfunctions, fire safety, no cameras, car thefts, packages/mail theft and more recently negligent onsite construction protocols. In every communication with our property manager Katherine Lipovsky she has highlighted the lack of organization and chaos she has inherited as if this is a good defense and points out if I am not an owner I do not have a voice and my concern will hold no merit. River Towers is a community that should invest in safety as we have witnessed the repercussions and consequences for looking the other way for example our very own collapse! Over the last month I witnessed negligent practices displayed continually from the pool contractors.  These observations included the pool gate always being left wide open and routinely I have witnessed equipment left in the middle of the sidewalk completely unattended.  A child, pet or any person not just River Towers tenants could easily fall into the unfilled cement pool or trip on neglected equipment.  There are specific protocols in place for Onsite Construction Safety and General Pool Safety that include fall protections and controlled access guidelines, for example worker manning a door when the site cannot be closed.  To quote OSHA directly under Leading Hazards at a Construction Site the first line reads as follows "Falls consistently account for the greatest number of fatalities in the construction industry".   I first called River Towers directly to report my concern and felt unsatisfied with the property manager's lack of response, accountability, knowledge, understanding or urgency.  There was no leadership displayed and I truly felt she did not know what action to take therefore I followed up with an email writing directly to the Board of Directors.  I received a response that indicated the general manager would communicate with the contractors on these issues.  After a few weeks of no changes displayed from the contractor I called the office again to report the issue on July 15th however no one answered the phone so I sent an email and decided to walk over with my 2 year old.  While making my way to the office I ran into a tenant from 6641 who was also unable to get through via phone and so we walked together.  Upon arrival there was a sign on the door that said they no longer take "walk ins" and only to call, but they don't answer the phone! The other tenant knocked on the door repeatedly until the Property Manager opened the door.  Katherine was degrading to both of us as she spoke over and down to us on our separate concerns.  In regards to mine she repeated that the pool was a working site therefore the gate must remain open.  This argument is ridiculous as work is never done right next to the gate and when I have stood by it for long periods of time there no foot traffic from contractors.  Specifically on July 15th they were just sitting eating at the table area why can't the gate be closed when they are eating?  In all safety guidelines it mentions that some effort must be made to secure the work area, there was no effort not even a sign up.  When I brought up the concern that innocent people could be hurt or killed because of easily fixed negligence she repeated to me "I am sorry this is not the answer you want to hear".  The other tenant responded to Kathleen voicing that she did not like her response and that River Towers could be liable criminally not just civilly and it would be manslaughter reckless disregard for human life.  The property manager then SLAMMED THE DOOR IN OUR FACE. Whether the condo would be liable or not misses the point, does our property manager just not care? It is not my intention to jeopardize our property managements standing with River Towers however I am at a loss of what I can do as a renter to feel heard on safety concerns.

It's the only condos I know of with community garden plots as an amenity. It is close to shopping, restaurants, Wells Fargo, hair salons, Belle View elementary, the Martha Washington library and recreation. The Mount Vernon trail , Potomac river, and Dyke Marsh are a short walk. The Mount Vernon recreation center is currently undergoing a massive remodeling. Lots of changes in the last year. New roof on one building, others are scheduled in the next year, new electronic access system, and new security cameras currently being installed. The Association's Green Energy Committee has been working with Fairfax county to get electric fueling stations installed. My HOA for a one-bedroom is about $650. It might seem like a lot until you consider it includes electric, gas, water, sewer, garbage, and two parking spaces (about 1/3 to 1/2 of your HOA). I never see a utility bill. Changes in the water shut of practice, one scheduled day per month, has been great. My building hasn't had a water shut off in months. I know many remember the structural damage to one of the buildings several years ago. The Association hired a well known structural engineering firm that specializes in this type of damage around the world. All three buildings were inspected and are structurally sound. Overall, it's a friendly, pet friendly community and a great place to live.
