Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Transport is good too, buses come often and it not hard to travel. On Tennant Street the parking is mostly fine, you can find space most days. It’s easy to order Uber from Tennant street. Parking is also free on Sunday and weekdays after a certain time I think.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management very helpful and always try to fix problems quickly. It can take some time to get a response on weekends because I don’t think they work on weekends
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There’s always problems with the doors and this is not good.
