The Elm has gone signficantly downhill I live on a high floor at the Elm and really like my apartment. Bozzuto was not very good, but then came AIR. The entire team at AIR seem determined to overpromise, underdeliver, and nickel and dime us for more money at every possible chance. Living in the building has taken a serious drop. The man-hours at the front desk are inadequate, they want to charge us for delivering packages, the dog situation is getting worse (poop and pee in many public areas), the police have been coming more regularly to deal with tenant issues, the amenities mostly don't work very well, and management is out of touch with reality. They are constantly putting out fires. Communication is terrible. There are charges for things that aren't on the lease, and people have been living with things like cigarette butts flying out the windows and down onto their decks. We've already been through one general manager and are on our second - they are just AIR people who do (and don't do) what corporate wants. Now that Blackrock bought Air, I imagine management will be taking their packages and early retirement. I don't expect much. It's a good building. It is poorly managed. Most of us are either planning to leave or have already left. It's not like we didn't try to help them. We did. But they promised and promised and things have gotten worse.
