About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
The Paramount offers a traditional sauna and a steam room for its gym members. However, the sauna is consistently reported as broken and non-operational. The steam room is described by members as disgusting, indicating significant cleanliness issues. These thermal recovery amenities are therefore unavailable or in a state of disrepair, providing no wellness benefits to members.
Additional Amenities
Beyond the wellness facilities, the residential gym has multiple broken machines, further limiting its utility. The broader apartment complex faces numerous operational challenges. The laundry facilities are a frequent source of frustration, with washers and dryers often out of order. Even when operational, members report that dryers are filthy and require multiple cycles to dry clothes, and there are instances of stolen laundry. The long-promised pool was delayed for years and, once built, is described as cloudy, green, and rarely cleaned.
Atmosphere
The living environment is characterized by significant disturbances. Members report constant noise from neighbors, dogs barking, and nearby fire station sirens. The apartments have thin walls, and privacy is compromised by cheap, frequently broken blinds. Common areas, including stairways, are described as dirty and rarely cleaned. The property contends with persistent pest infestations of cockroaches and mice, as well as issues with clogged trash chutes leading to trash pileups and odors. Maintenance problems are widespread, including flooding, black mold growth, drafty doors, a malfunctioning HVAC system, and frequent elevator breakdowns.
