FILMWORKS LOFTS 2006


CONDO MEETING THIS COMING THURSDAY FEBERUARY 23RD IN THE LOBBY AT 7:00 P.M. NOTICES HAVE BEEN POSTED. EVERY ONE PLEASE ATTEND. THE BOARD WILL DISCUSS THE CURRENT STATUS OF THE LANDSCAPING PROJECT.

THE OLD GREYHOUND        
BUS DEPOT IS BEING CONVERTED INTO OFFICE SPACE. THAT SHOULD COMPLETE THE 4 CORNERS AT WABASH AND ROOSEVELT.

THE WHOLE FOODS, DSW PLUS LINEN ‘’N’ THINGS PROJECT IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. THEY WILL NOT BE READY IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2006 MORE LIKE THE END OF THE SUMMER.

ONCE AGAIN WE ASK UNIT OWNERS TO BE DILIGENT IN WATCHING WHO IS ENTERING THE BUILDING AT BOTH DOORS AND WHO IS ENTERING THE PARKING LOT. DO NOT LET ANYONE IN WHO YOU DO NOT KNOW. NEW OWNERS IF YOU ARE NOT RECOGNIZED DO NOT TAKE IT PERSONAL IF WE ASK QUESTIONS. IT IS TO KEEP THE SECUIRTY OF THE BUILDING INTACT.

OKAY WHO IS STILL HAVING CRAPPY RECEPTION ON CHANNEL 5/NBC?  AT THE CONDO MEETING WE SHOULD BRING THAT UP TO THE BOARD. ALSO THE FRONT CAMERA IS REALLY ACTING UP & MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED.




UNIT OWNERS WHEN YOU HAVE A LARGE DELIVERY AND YOU THEN HAVE A LARGE BOX IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BREAK IT DOWN, DRAG IT TO THE LOADING DOCK DUMPSTERS. THIS IS NOT A MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE ON ALL FLOORS. SO WHEN THE BIG PLASMA TV COMES IN, BREAKD DOWN THAT BOX.

SPRING IS KNOCKING ON THE DOOR AND THAT MEANS SOME GENERAL MAINTENANCE IN YOUR OWN HOMES. GOOD TIME TO TAKE INVENTORY, CLEAN OUT CLOSETS, TAKE THE STUFF TO CHARITY OR PITCH IT IN THE DUMPSTER. DO NOT LEAVE IT ON THE DOCK. WHEN THE TEMPS ARE ABOUT TO HIT 60 DEGREES THREE DAYS IN A ROW CONTACT YOUR HVAC GUY AND HAVE THEM COME OUT AND CHECK YOU’RE A/C. COOL MAN HAS BEEN WORKING IN THE BUILDING FOR YEARS. IF YOU NEED A PHONE NUMBER LET ME KNOW.

WE DO HAVE SEVERAL VENDORS THAT ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE BUILDING AND HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB IN YEARS PAST. WE HAVE PLUMBERS, PAINTERS, CARPET CLEANERS, DUCTWORK CLEANING SERVICES, REMODELERS, FLOOR SANDERS & REFINSHERS ANYTHING ELSE YOUR HEART DESIRES. JUST ASK AND WE CAN SUPPLY YOU WITH THOSE CONTACTS.

IT MAY BE WISE TO RE-KEY YOUR DOOR LOCKS IF YOU HAVE NOT DONE THAT IN AWHILE. WE HAVE A GREAT LOCKSMITH.

PET OWNERS, ESPECIALLY THE DOG OWNERS PLEASE COMPLY. WE HAVE A DOG WITH A LOOSE BLADDER. IF YOUR DOG IS PRONE TO THAT, PLEASE GRAB THAT NIX BOTTLE AND SPRITZ THAT CARPET SO NO OTHER DOG HAS THE DESIRE TO MARK THE SPOT ALSO. AS YOU KNOW IF YOU DO NOT CLEAN IT UP WITH A NIX LIKE PRODUCT IT WILL BECOME A MORE PROBLEMATIC. NO ONE WANTS TO HAVE PET OWNERSHIP RESTRICTED IN THE BUILDING.


NOW I WILL APPEAL TO THE BOARD, THE CARPET IS NOT A GOOD PRODUCT FOR A PET FRIENDLY BUILDING. THE BOARD NEEDS TO LOOK INTO A FLOORING COVERING THAT CAN BE CLEANED WITH JUST A WET SPONGE.

ALDERMAN HAITHCOCK’S OFFICE IS NOW LOCATED AT 1234 SOUTH MICHIGAN AVENUE.  PICK UP YOUR PARKING PERMITS FOR THE BEARS GAMES WITHOUT A HASSLE.

HAS THE MAIL GOTTEN BETTER? I KNOW PAM HARRIS OF THE USPS HAS BEEN HERE SEVERAL TIMES TO MAKE SURE MAIL IS DELIVERED PROPERLY.


NOISE, NOISE & MORE NOISE. UNIT OWNERS BE RESPECTFUL. STOP THE BANGING INTO THE LATE HOURS OF THE EVENING. HAMMERING AWAY @ 10 P.M. IS NOT WHAT QUIET LIVING IS ALL ABOUT. THE RULES AND REGS ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. TAKE THEM OUT AND READ THEM. SAME RULES APPLY TO MUSIC AND THOSE BIG SCREEN TV’S.
KEEP THE VOLUME DOWN. AS SOLID AS THIS BUILDING IS THOSE HAMMERS & NAILS PLUS THE STONES CONCERT CAN BE HEARD WHEN IT IS PUMPED UP! BABIES AND ADULTS NEED THERE REST. SO DO THE SENIORS. I HAVE RECEIVED LOADS OF
E-MAILS LATELY ASKING IF I AM HEARING ALL THAT RACKET AND YES WE ARE ALL HEARING THAT NOISE.

BY THE WAY ON A PERSONAL NOTE, IF I DO NOT RECOGNIZE YOU RIGHT AWAY I AM NOT TRYING TO AVOID YOU. I HAPPEN TO BE BLESSED WITH A CATARACT IN EACH EYE. I NEED TO BE UP FRONT AND PERSONAL TO SEE YOU. SOMETIME THIS YEAR IT WILL ADDRESS. PLEASE UNDERSTAND.
