I live at the Laurel. They damaged our property, and we have a tree growing out of the roof over the side of the building. The tree grew because we did not have access to our terrace for a year. They allowed the drains to clog and leak into our apartment. There is a tree that grew out of the roof (their part as described in the declarations), and they refuse to respond to its removal; it continues to breach the concrete facade. They avoid and allow problems to fester and threaten residents. To remove the tree would require that we scale the building when they have window cleaners that could easily pull it out before it gets much bigger. Look up at the skyline at the Laurel 67 and 1st. I like nature, but not trees growing down into my living room.

The Laurel management and board leadership have consistently failed to protect and respect residents’ spaces or address issues in a timely or transparent way. My private space was accessed without authorization, resulting in damages that remain unrepaired and unacknowledged. Requests for accountability and communication are routinely ignored, and maintenance concerns are either bypassed or dismissed altogether. Resident safety is compromised by board member intimidation and an overall lack of professionalism. Meeting notices are posted out of public view, and the board—unchanged for nearly two decades—continues to operate without transparency, with the original developer still directing decisions. The focus appears to be on control, ego, and preserving power rather than honoring the rights outlined in the bylaws or serving the residents who fund the building. Resources are spent frivolously on personal agendas instead of maintaining standards, addressing safety, or improving resident experience. What should be a luxury residence has instead become a case study in poor governance, misplaced priorities, and disregard for the community it was meant to serve.

My experience has been disappointing. I expected a high level of management and accountability. Instead we have endured over a year of unresolved damage to our terrace and home due to unauthorized access and damage. Despite attempts to communicate, have the board visit, view the damage first hand, we have received little accountability. The building operates without transparency, communication, or within budget. Board members have been in place for 20years, conflicts of interest, and a dismissive attitude that is concerning. We hoped for a luxury experience and have received ongoing conflict and emotional stress. I cannot in good conscience recommend The Laurel to those seeking a well managed building that is resident focused.
