This building was decent,years ago,I had a relative who lived here when it was a good place to live.So a couple years back I decided to relocate to be closer to a new job.I thought the building was closer and had things to offer like a store in building a pool and a nice location for walks and running through the farm,.The store sells no name at higher prices then you pay for brand name at a remote convenience store, Well the first summer i was here there pool was closed most o the summer,story was they hired on the cheap and the first repair crew botcched the job or walked,this past summer more of the same problems but fixed a little faster so only lost a couple weeks unlike the previous summer,THe entrance to back door/parking has a ramp,it was recently repaired after years of crumbling,there were chunks of loose concrete and holes all over and was very dangerous,especially in winter, The hallway carpets are filthy with pet stains etc and are nver steam cleaned,As others have said the walls are thin,thermostats do not work due to faulty heating,You either have no heat or full time heat.Last year near xmas one of 2 elevators was out of service for 2 months leaving only one operating which caused long waits and chaos at end of month with a high volume of moves,As well as others have mentioned the fire alarms go crazy,quiet at times then periods of false alarms mostly at night,again due to faulty equipment, The latest beef i have is the covert way they are handling a sale of building.We were told it was sold,now rumor is it was not,but no one seems to get the truth each month you have to ask who rent payment is made to.Along with a yearly inspection because of this we have had several inspections in the last year. I like many people do not like people in my place when i am not home and this time we dont even know who is going to be in our homes as tenants are getting conflicting stories varying from glenview mgt,to alleged buyers,to insurance and also real estate people,,As a result of all these inspections I have lost about $700 this year and several days of work to be home.The latest notice gave 2 dates for inspections =2 days off. As others have said,avoid this place I do not recommend this place. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report as Spam |

Don't live here. The walls are paper thin. You can hear everything your neighbours do. The elevators are in a constant state of disrepair, with only bare minimum work being conducted on them to keep them nominally working. The office clerk has little skill or ability in interacting with people, and often raises her voice in response to requests she denies. Overall, I had a horrible experience with this building, and would not wish this experience on anyone. I do not recommend this place. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report as Spam |

Fake thermostats, cheap bathroom and kitchens, inside doors are about 2 inches too short, windows are of poor qualify and let a lot of cold in and shake when there is any wind, not enough parking for all the residents, frequent false fire alarms in the middle of the night and very odd and strict visitor parking rules. The staff are pretty good but the building is old and the rent is pretty high compared to other similar buildings in the area. I do not recommend this place. Was this review helpful?
