Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The area offers a mix of cafes, pubs and corner shops with multiple supermarkets in walking distance
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
This has been mixed. When we first moved in and had a couple of issues they were resolved quickly but other times we were waiting weeks to get fixes
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish we had the opportunity to view a wider range of available units to assess which unit would be the best fit for us. But despite this overall we have loved the one we got

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
With the local Sainsbury's opening up, it has provided easy access. We have had parking problems but that has now been fixed with the new pillars blocking these cars from coming through.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They have responded quickly, often going the extra mile to make sure whatever it is is fixed
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I would say attending the events is a really good way to meet and see people who have the same interests. Though it can be daunting its a good way to learn about what's happening and support around the building

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living in Anderston is great, the train station is nearby, there are voi bikes just by the river walkway so it’s easy to get there and back from work. Sainsbury’s is always a great highlight to have when you need something on the go. Sadly, some recent events have quite impacted the overall safety aspect of the neighbourhood, while it is also worth noting that nowhere is safe, it’s also fair to report that there has been some individuals breaking into the building and causing chaos across the Block where the police had to be informed and the staff handled that promptly. In addition, Warroch Street requires more safety overall, due to an assault to an individual which occurred a few weeks ago, while it did not happen on Platform grounds it was still really close to the development. I wish there was something that could be done, more lights installation, security around the building. Please increase security across the complex, and enhance the gates
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Whenever there were issues with our flat the building management had responded efficiently, punctually, and very promptly, I have no issues with that at all, as they always try to solve every flat-related issue in a timely manner. Other issues I have raised were regarding space development which I mentioned above that we wish we were more consulted on upcoming changes rather than just being informed that changes were happening
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Some people are very entitled and expect too much from the staff and costs nothing to be genuine and kind to the staff who are always working hard and trying their best to make this place great.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, when we had an issue with our door. I reported it via the website and it was fixed the same day
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Potentially a bit more information about parking in the building and the surrounding area
