Most of the talk seems to be about the outside. We did our finished MLS unit inspection this week and for 1/2 million $$$$ the finishing is pretty bad. Enen the $1,000 we paid in upgrades are finished poorly. The fine workmansip is bad. Ceiling and wall drywall joins are highly visable, walls not level or even flat, the bathroom caulking is too thick and lumpy. There are no baesboards just slopply painted 1 x 2" chipwood pcs. Very disappointed. The inspection assistant just rushed us through the process. Very disappointed. At the time of purchase the sales agent said some questions we had would be addressed as we got closer to finishing = at the disign center whan picking out our finishes we were tolf questions would be answered at the inspection - at the inspection we were told they knew nothing and could do nothing!! what the H?? lwarmed the hard way, good thing it is for rent I wouldn't life in it. I don't know what all the fuss is about. Oh yeh, at the time of the sale 5 years ago we were very clearly told to other building would be coming up in front of the south tower - now ICE has 2 that will block the vbiews we paid for!! Very disappointed!!
We also just did the Pre-Delivery Inspection and were not impressed. Had all the same experiences. They tried to russ us through but I would not leave until I was done. Lot for them to correct not not holding out hope they will. In the sales show unit they had engineered wood floors and when we asked what was standard and what was upgrade the sales agent pointed to the floors and said the engineered floors are standard. In the finishes office later on they are trying to tell us that multi plank laminate flooring is engineered flooring. It is criminal and there should not be allowed.
