"55 10th Street -
Westminster Towers have
problems"
Too many renters and the sense that less than 25% of the people that live here actually care about the building. In my opinion the manager of the building is a waste of a pay check. Few problems have been addressed including security, functioning video cameras, upkeep of the building, and being available when problems occur. In the last six months there has been two units evicted for drug dealing (appear to be over with after extensive problems for some time), one of the two elevators did not run for over 2 months, no elevator for 2 days, flooding in the ba---t, regular water shut downs for breaking pipes and leaks in various suites, numerous fire alarms mostly false, two assaults inside the building in the lobby - one on a resident and another on a security guard, plus broken windows on at least two occaisions at the front lobby. The area is improving with a lot of construction, but I would not recommend this building unless the price is very low. In the next couple of years the owners are going to be on the hook for rainscreening and there are also several other major repairs/expenses required.

"Could it get worse"
Well I just read the last review on this building, and my thoughts are "Could it get worse" So now we have Drug dealers and break-ins etc. Well add to that the fact that this building, and the others in the complex have seroius issued with water penetration that no one seems to want to deal with, makes for a great place I would say. NOT! I would not recommend this building.

"Former crack house in
this building"
June 14, 2008 "New Westminster police raided a crack house after receiving tips from neighbours. On Wednesday, the police's operational support unit and the municipal integrated emergency response team executed a drug search warrant in an apartment at 55 10th St. Six people were found along with a small amount of crack cocaine. The registered tenant of the unit had apparently allowed his apartment to be used as a place to sell and use crack. The others soon threw the tenant out after an altercation, changed the locks and occupied the suite." http://www.canada.com/newwestrecord/news/story.html?id=cfd7690b-621d-45e1-ba91-9f9b2a82f765 Also, from 1999 "Downtown Residents Association" "At our last meeting, residents from 55 - 10th St. (10th and Carnarvon) reported that the crack dealers have been pushed down to 10th Street. Since January or so, the residents have been having problems with break-ins, vandalism, and noise. In fact, there's people in two apartments in their building who are dealing crack cocaine. One's a tenant, and is being evicted. Another's an owner, and they're trying to find a way to get rid of him." http://www.geocities.com/rwvong/downtown/news199904.html

Moronically implemented keyword filtering took out s.e.m.e.n from b.a.s.e.m.e.n.t.
Just wondering if anybody can provide info on the "rainscreening and there are also several other major repairs/expenses required." I am interested in purchasing a unit in one of the three buildings that make up the property. Thanks!
