The building is beautiful and the view of the city is unmatched. But the lobby and elevators are gross, and the homeless population around the building make it unsafe for me to walk my dog at night especially with the time change. I’ve personally had two unpleasant experiences with homeless men being in the lobby. I spoke to another female resident that had an unpleasant experience with a homeless man in the building also. Plus I noticed someone had been taking electricity from the building and... running it to the abandoned building across from the mid rise. I also had my license plate stolen while I parked in the guest parking lot over night so now my car stays behind the gate. As a woman I don’t feel safe in the guest lot or around the building at night due to the homeless population that hangs around. I even had a kind gentleman from the mid rise warn my husband and I one night about how unsafe it is. I’ve witnessed many, clearly drug addiction fueled, arguments and rants in the driveway by the homeless population. And had run ins with them in the garage and even in the outside doorways while trying to get into the building. Honestly it’s a bit scary and there is no security. In my opinion, the building is too nice to be so poorly maintained.
