My review is in reference to the continous drug use inside of the building where there is only 6 handicap apartments and the rental office is in the same building at 1901 Spring Garden Street in philadelphia pa 19130. The management team has been made aware of the problem for years now when is someone going to really address this issue before it causes conflict with the tenants in which it is already a safety issue due to the fact it is suppose to be a smoke free building All i ask is that someone actually really try to extinguish the flame before the fire.Thank You

They living in one of the units for more than 12 years I put in complaint about threats against my life being made and a neighbor not following the lease all they could do was try to match wits with me instead of actually handling their business not to mention the repairs that need done in this house. somebody responded to this review and when I message them off of here to tell them about the ongoing problems just like the onsite manager and the district manager I have got nowhere and continue to be ignored

I've been a tenant at TCB Franklin Park for about 23 years, and I must say that the current staff is just horrible. Most of the guys have no experience with apartment maintenance. I've been dealing with a mold issue for many years and no one seem to care or have the knowledge on how to handle this issue. Everytime I go to the annual decertification, I mention the issue and it goes to deaf ears.
About 3 months ago a tech came to my unit to do repairs and left saying he was returning to complete the work. And I am still waiting, i still have the toilet seat in the plastic, no towel bar and mold still there. Not to mention tenants violating lease rules and nothing been done about it. It's very disappointing and upsetting.
