123 S Pennsylvania

I lived at 123 South Pennsylvania Street in Denver, CO for 12 months and have one recommendation to potential tenants, do not live here.
Our unit was advertised as 700 sq feet when we toured it, we later found it out was actually only 425 sq feet. I heard similar things from other tenants in the building; that their unit was falsely advertised as being several hundred square feet larger than it actually was. Bring a tape measure if you want to know the real square footage of your unit.
When we moved in our unit was not equipped with a smoke alarm or a carbon monoxide detector (both required by Colorado state law). It took 4 weeks of emails, phone calls, and in person conversations with Larry (the owner and manager of the building), before they were finally installed.
It is impossible to sleep at night due to the extremely loud clanking of the steam heating pipes which heat the building. Imagine someone hitting a steel pipe with a hammer as hard as they can every 10 seconds; this is what our entire unit sounded like 24 hours a day October through May. I spoke with Larry several times about this problem but nothing was ever done.
Our unit was in a complete state of disrepair due to shoddy renovation work and the building being more than 100 years old. In our entire time living there not a single one of our dozens of repair requests were ever addressed by Larry.
One time our kitchen sink was leaking and after multiple requests Larry for once sent a worker out to fix it. The worker looked at the sink for 5 minutes and told me he needed to get another tool but would be right back. He never came back. Instead I had to go to the hardware store, buy the replacement parts myself and spend a day fixing the leak.
There was no ceiling insulation in the bedroom of our unit which meant we heard every footstep, pin drop, and conversation of the tenants living above us. Larry told us the ceiling insulation had been torn out to make the bedroom appear bigger and refused to replace it.
In our 12 months living there the electricity and water for the entire building was shut off by Larry 5 times for hours at time with absolutely no notice.
Past tenants have also apparently had problems with bed bugs in the building, see full report here:
In conclusion living at 123 S Pennsylvania Street is an absolute nightmare due to incompetent management and the building falling apart at the seams. Do not live here.
