The building is being converted from Title 9 housing to market rate housing. The transition is NOT going smoothly. We moved into the building with completely open eyes, expecting a normal living situation commensurate with the luxury rental rate we are paying. Sadly, it is nowhere close to that. Our floor is filled with tons of chain smokers who literally smoke in the hallway and leave doors open. We have a baby, so it is a severe health hazard. The maintenance staff and building staff are in a general daze and don't respond to a request unless you get ahold of them in the moment and they solve your problem in 30 mins. Otherwise, you'll need to call them again (and again). But back to the basics -- this is a low income housing development masked in a luxury priced situation. It is not acceptable. Buyer beware.
