Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
the only good thing is the proximity of a local Sainsbury. apartment is too close to the railway even with all the windows closed the noise is still noticeable. the tunnel that goes to cable street is dark at night, stinks and has many pot holes. parking disobeyed daily with the white Ferrari always parking illegally.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
yes they do eventually only by shouting and then its super slow and with out care or empathy
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
avoid due to the many above issues, but hard to know before moving in tbh

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Super well located, with main bus lines, the DLR and Cycle Superhighway all within seconds walk. The Overground can also be reached easily. Tower Hamlets Council do however take very poor care of the area, there is constant litter and drug abuse on the streets outside.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Eventually....and slowly.....after many many chasing messages and reminders (and legal threats).
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The reputation of Notting Hill Genesis

Amazing building, amazing design, poor management

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Absolutely fantastic location - great shop choices, cafes, parks, walks, pubs, restaurant and perfect transport connections for anywhere in London ! No parking available but this isn’t usually a problem except when we have guests. Bin collection is okay but not the best - problems especially at Christmas with the tree collections and excessive cardboard boxes. Anti-social behaviour on street happens but this isn’t any more than I was expecting. Noise from DLR but again nothing unexpected. No food waste collection which is disappointing.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes there has been a response in the end but this has taken far longer than expected and required a lot of chasing.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Great community of people have moved in - real great atmosphere and everyone on every floor is super friendly. But I advise that you check everything throughly before moving otherwise it will take a long time to be resolved after. No other issues though and an amazing place to live with great flats, great design and great location!
