Hands down the worst experience I’ve ever had with an apartment company. Horrible horrible horrible. They are cheap and the building is unsafe. A person was sleeping on the couch in the lobby for two days because management was so slow to respond. Have come home to crackheads in the building using a screwdriver to open our mailboxes. The management treats people with total disregard. Run for your life!

Been here for 2 years, pros and cons Pros: - Concrete building. I play my music pretty loudly, but nobody hears anything because it's a concrete building. I never hear my neighbors unless someone upstairs drops something; even then, fairly muffled. - Excellent location. Mission is amazing, especially in the summer. - Views are excellent, either west or east facing windows. It does get hot in the summer but I just keep my blinds drawn when the sun is directly shining and I'm good to go. - Full sized appliances incl dishwasher. Kitchen was a good size in my old bachelor unit. - new management in the last few months, Strategic dropped the ball big time so Greystone took over. They've started fixing a ton of things that really needed to be done (spoke to the building manager about one of the ALWAYS BROKEN elevators... she had just ordered a 30k part to fix the thing, yay). Manager also moved me to a bigger apartment on a higher floor after an accident in my unit so pretty happy about that. Cons - It is an older building. The heating isn't exactly state of the art. - elevators are original and are slow compared to new ones. - Parkade is not managed by the building. Used to be impark, now it's diamond. I've had my car broken into while it was impark and was robbed blind, so hopefully diamond will get it together and start monitoring the parkade properly. - card laundry, on bottom floor. All in all, I've resigned my lease and will be here for the foreseeable future. I could have moved but I chose to stay because I like it that much.
I viewed a unit in this building, the building manager said she was going to show me another one in couple days. She never got back to me, after many trials reached her again. She said she will contact me asap after, then never did. Called the main office on different days, left my number several times and not a single person contacted me. Thanks for wasting my time!! I'm glad I did not move into a building that's managed with such unprofessional attitude. Dodged a bullet!
To say this is the worst building would be a gross understatement. If the elevator works more than an 1/8th of the times you try and use it, congratulations, you are the lucky one. They NEVER work, even the parkade elevators have now been down for weeks. If there was an option for zero stars, this would be the building for it. Low rent because nothing works.
Been living in this place since May 2017 and it's been pretty nice. Building maintenance people are very nice, neighbors are well somewhat okay, depending on what floor you live on. When it's time for you to move though, they do become extremely rude by the people in main head office of strategic.
