More than meets the eye….
They turn off the water or electricity in the entire complex of every unit for “maintenance” at random. Some days you will get a weeks notice other times a day before. Not even an email always it could just be a paper left on your door and the next day your water won’t turn on. The same for the electric. They will turn it off for the entire working day and for seniors they cannot have their medical devices plugged up, have to make arrangements to be elsewhere, and the implications to health is... worst. For work from home tenants they have no way to not be uprooted and displaced. This happens OFTEN.
Everything is under the guise of “maintenance” because when they replaces the elevators in each building it took them over 12 weeks to not have them installed but to have them operational. During that time disabled and elderly people again are forced to walk to other sides of the property to get upstairs, take steps or carry heavy groceries and equipment alone at their own risk.
More maintenance…their used to be trash shoots for tenant they got rid of them and all tenants are forced to walk all the way to the end of their parking lots and haul their trash in dumpsters guarded by 10ft fences. No matter the weather conditions this is what has to be done. Again for elderly people they can’t do that and so often times they are left just leaving it in the hallway overnight in some cases which attracts rodents.
The parking situation was great for a while here until people started stealing catalytic converters, strangers started parking in the lot without a permit and spaces became scarcely available. They gave us all new passes but still some people who didn’t receive them got towed.
The balconies are deteriorating, the entire building is old. Walk up and down the hallways and see the eroded drop ceilings, the stained teal carpet and old damaged door dreamers as well as the dying plants in the lobby and outdated pictures from the 80s on the wall. Again with maintenance now they have most recently started painting the walls and installed new fire security doors. These doors are industrial, heavy and are likened to prison doors.
The units themselves are all outdated. Old wooden cabinets where mice and rodents can easily get through and have a field day.
St Regis is an old Altman property that is constantly under “maintenance” at the inconvenience of its tenants and continues to raise the rent and make it more difficult for everyday people to live comfortably,
