Some Pros and Cons

Pros:
- Staff is very nice and professional
- The building is cool and shiny and units have a great floorplan with floor to ceiling windows (now check the cons)
- The pool and gym are nice additions
- Location is great

Cons:
- They have 3 elevators for 37 floors, ~8 units per floors. Usually only 2/3 elevators actually work. You end up waiting a long time for elevators. This is extremely frustrating as they are always down, under construction, or just slow. Poor building planning and no easy...
fix.
- The AC units are pre-programmed and reset frequently to 74 degrees (F), making you constantly reset it and wake up sweating in the middle of the night. If you like temperature control in your apartment, this isn't the place for you.
- Showers are tough to regulate temperatures and once hot, they go straight back to freezing with no in between. They also take 10-15 minutes to actually heat up.
- Every handle, surface, and door has THE sharpest edges. This aspect of the apartment I do not understand. If a grown, 28 year-old, man cuts himself imagine what will happen with a kid.
- Pool and gym come at an additional cost and are filled with loud groups and noisy kids. Not the biggest issue but not very relaxing. Also, pool has way too many chemicals in it (girlfriend's bathing suit was completely bleached and ruined)
- Floor to ceiling windows have never been cleaned and are absolutely filthy. Windows don't open wide enough to allow tenant to clean, so they remain gross.

Overall: I like the building. However, these are the things I wish I knew before moving in so that I could reevaluate costs and other options.
