How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The building management team is approachable and always welcoming to residents. They host monthly resident events, which is impressive—especially compared to my previous building, where nothing like this was offered. I really enjoy living here, as it feels like a true community where we get to know one another.
