My boyfriend and I have lived here for two years now (and he actually lived here about seven years ago before we met). Residents are very friendly, the building and grounds are always clean and well-maintained. They have certainly made a lot of improvements to the complex recently, and the location is pretty top notch. You really can't beat the perfect proximity to most of the major highways. However, all that aside, when I found out today that Tim Peterson, the concierge, was being terminated, my favorability went down the drain. I honestly don't know if this decision came from the complex itself, or whether it was handed down from Aimco, but whomever's decision it was should be ashamed. In an increasingly automated world, Tim's helpful presence was so refreshing. To be fair, I'm surprised he lasted this long...his sweet disposition and willingness to bend over backwards for anyone has been quite the contrast from most of the people who work in the leasing office.When Tim's desk disappeared from the common area during the remodel, my boyfriend pointed it out to me with dismay. I brushed it off, thinking there was no way the administration would be silly enough to let go of such an integral part of the community; surely they were just moving the concierge desk elsewhere. But here we are a couple months later, and clearly I was sadly mistaken.I know that Aimco and the apartment complex administration doesn't really care how much this upsets people, as long as they're still getting our money. But please know that I will no longer be speaking highly of this community when asked about where I live, and I will no longer be recommending it to anyone. Tim Peterson is and was one of the absolute best things about living at Elm Creek, and to repay his many years of loyalty with a swift and heartless dismissal is unacceptable. He truly has been a saving grace when it comes to living in a corporate-ruled community.
