I believe pest control is a major issue. I saw insects stuck to the window screens in the room, and they can get in through any small opening. Some of them looked like bed bugs, but it’s possible for all kinds of insects to come inside. It is old and has a bad odor. Between the two entrance doors, you may occasionally see homeless people sleeping there. and there is a school and a generator nearby that prevent you from opening the windows.
I’ve been a resident here for over 2 years and Amalia has been an incredible building manager throughout. She’s always attentive, kind and truly cares about the residents. Thank you ?
OCTOBER 2025 UPDATE There have been more than 20+ instances of water shutdown just this year!! Anyone looking to rent vacant units here be aware this not a healthy living situation for a slew of reasons. The company continues to use a toxic cheap floor varnish for the "new" apartments you will be moving into. Tenants are given no notice of this awful practice - there is zero consideration for health or safety. Toronto building bylaws are violated regularly. The inconveniences on a daily basis are not worth it, look elsewhere.
Spoke on the phone with the leasing agent for this building, I wanted to book an appointment for a viewing. She was really rude, spoke over me and then hung up the phone before I could ask more questions. Strange
It has been a great experience living in this building & the onsite manager is amazing. My only complaint would be the budget she has for things like a tiny fridge, inexpensive folding closet doors (awkward in a smaller space than sliding doors & the indoor painting (only 1 coat so it comes off fairly easily).
Website says promotion available - when you call there isnt one - website list price at 150 a month less than quoted on phone - basically they say take it or leave it - doesnt anyone honour anything they write anymore
Update: The photos attached are the tip of the iceberg of the current state of this building. Construction in the building started in September & was projected to end by October. We’re now in November with the end nowhere in sight. The people running this place are cowards & crooks & won’t respond to any emails so maybe this will get their attention. Nobody is paying rent to live in a smelly, dirty, rotting, noisy landfill. This place is a health hazard. There has been dust everywhere for weeks. I physically can’t stand being in my own unit for too long without having breathing problems. There are roaches in the lobby, nails, paint chips, leaves, garbage in every common area, holes in the stairwell, people passed out in the foyer (don’t bother calling their emergency lines, nobody here performs any job other than debt collector). This isn’t a residential space, this is a commercial junkyard. Prisons are kept in better condition. Can’t stress enough; avoid at all costs. rental agreement said there’d be no more construction going into this year. Not one honest person in this place. State of the place is inhumane & downright vile. Shame on everybody being paid to “manage” this place. Metcap Living is a misnomer, try Metcap Surviving Lived here for a year and the experience has been mostly negative. A roach crawled out of the shower drain week 1. The building smells like an ashtray despite being advertised as non-smoking. When we first saw the unit, the balcony had a large bird's nest (with eggs) and was covered in bird excrement. We were explicitly assured that the mess would be cleaned up. It was not. This wasn't an anomaly, health violations are a reoccurring theme. A prior tenant's belongings were all over the apartment when we first moved in despite being told the unit had been cleaned spotlessly due to Covid. Took nearly a month to set-up our internet because a tenant underneath us had wrecked our wiring by doing prohibited work on their unit. A neighbour got bedbugs and we were instructed to move all of our furniture away from the wall, detach outlet coverings, etc in anticipation of a bug treatment. The techs come after 20+ hours of moving all our stuff around just for this treatment. They look inside 1 outlet and say "this unit was already treated". They leave after doing nothing. Days of manual labour for no purpose. Never got an apology. This building finds a way to make nearly every aspect of your life more painful. Nobody takes accountability. It's an uphill battle to have basic needs met. Avoid if you can
