For the residents of Alexandra Tower, Liverpool, this morning was a cold and misty one with fog still hanging over the Mersey and yet if there wasn’t enough to contend with, the ever failing car park lifts at the building both failed, leaving residents unable to get in or out of the car park.
Yet another incidence of residents being denied use of their cars to go to work, take the kids to school or go about their busy lives or self employment!
That the lifts have been failing like this for 3 years doesn’t seem to motivate the buildings’ owners/management to act when two years ago, assurances were given by Zolfo Cooper, that “if need be, the car lift system will be replaced”. Still waiting on that one....
This blog is now getting hundreds of visits per month, and is currently sitting on the first page of Google for all relevant search terms, right along side the very agents that are marketing this property.
Somehow, and despite a legal obligation to inform potential future residents viewing the building, about its problems, who in all honesty thinks that the letting agents are being upfront in their disclosures of information, which would otherwise have a bearing on the decision whether to live here or not?
Its not so easy to ignore Google when it places this blog (written without spin or misrepresentation of facts) alongside the very estate agents websites marketing the property. This building has so much potential to be a prime residence of the Liverpool waterfront, but with the current management, many feel it is destined to become nothing more than waterfront student accommodation and weekend party rentals as many working professionals are leaving the building, never to renew their leases.
*ps nothing against students but this isn’t a halls of residence or party building, hence the recent notice in the lobby from the buildings management, about noise complaints.
Hi, I woke up to this problem this morning. I placed my key in the lift to call it and as soon as I had taken the key out the light went off. I didn't know if it was only a problem on 4 but I'm hoping it works tomorrow morning. The way I got round it this morning was to go outside and open the lift with my key and get in, pushing the button to 4. It's really getting to be a joke. The hassle it caused over new year was awful - leaving the car on double yellows is not the solution. I don't even know who to write to or call about it.
