Opera Tower Apartments

I have lived in this building for a year now. I like my apartment a lot it’s very high. However there are numerous things that are absolutely ridiculous and making living here so much harder than it should be.
I hope this review helps many people.

The Pros:
- Now possible to get an apartment for a very good price
- The view
- The location

The Cons:
- The pool is empty and the whole pool area closed. Do not believe when your rental agreement says there’s a pool included in the lease!!!! I... thought so and heard after moving in that the pool has been empty for years
- Maintenance of the building. The management doesn't put money on fixing the building and its amenities.
- The gym is small and bad. Half of the weights are stolen and every single machine or dumbbell is at least a little broken. Even every single gym mat is broken
- Management and customer service is absolute garbage. Most of the employees are rude and have never heard of a smile. Most of the time they have no idea what they are doing and everything is made harder than it needs to be
- Package room is closed on Sundays so you can’t get your package at all between Saturday 5pm and Monday morning since they don’t let carriers upstairs even though you allowed that
- The building is "not supposed to allow short term rentals". Airbnb and other short term rentals having loud parties and fights all the time (there are crazy parties going on until 7am on Wednesdays and the management or security does nothing even though residents complain throughout the night)
- Recycling. You can only take your recycle garbage to the “recycling box” before 5pm. How you’re supposed to do that when you work early mornings and office hours? The trash chute has a recycling “option” and it doesn’t work of course

This building has enormous potential but the management and the owners just dont care at all and it shows. Being a “luxury” building but what you're getting with all the cons it’s not worth your money. Read More

The lady "Liz" who runs the place is mean and rude, always in a bad mood. Building is dirty and infested with cockroaches. Hallways have stained carpet and smells like a locker room. you have to pay $25 every time you want to use the grill plus deposit. Security is rude also and thinks they are the police when all they do is sit around and do nothing. Elevators are ALWAYS BROKEN. Place is a JOKE. People from Air BnB rent the "condos" for days and disrespect people who have lived there. wasted... many years and this Place and was treated horribly. PLACE IS DIRTY, WHAT A JOKE!
DON'T LIVE HERE IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY YOURSELF.
BETTER CHOICES ON BUILDINGS NEARBY.

I lived in this building for 2 years and I had a terrible experience as a long term resident. No pool, terrible gym, No working, and bad-smelling elevators. The majority of the building is Airbnb (Terrible Visitors).

Now an “AirBnB hotel”. Residents who rent being pushed out or leaving because of the noise and disruption. Revolving door of large families, bachelorette parties and such being squeezed into small units, 6-8 people in a small 2 bedroom. Not the best element and security a joke. Had a shooting a couple of months ago. Pool is super crowded & loud on weekends—seems people who don’t live in building have gotten access to fobs to enjoy the amenities. No control by management.
The two best things... about this building are the view & location. That’s it. Read More
