Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Quiet but central area, just off the vibrant Mill road. Plenty of dining options, selection of pubs, cafes and local shops.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Yes, always takes forever to fix things as being pushed from developer to the management company and back. It's yet and a half now and some of the things are still not fixed. As usual minimal effort to things they do address.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I whish i knew the build and finish quality used by the developer.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Great location, excellent views of the city center from penthouse. Underground car park. Once weekly bin collection. Good soundproof from the top floor and it’s rather quiet despite its proximity to the railway. There are a few council housing blocks nearby and non residents may sometimes wander around the residential area.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Yes from window scratch to mustic repair. However the management company could have done better job in cleaning the external window and the car park

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

The quality and standard of the management company

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The location is amazing, situated between the cosmopolitan Mill Road to one side, and walking access to Grafton and Beehive Centre on the other side. It is also exceptionally quiet. The space is open and doesn’t feel “blocked in”. The bin collection frequency is ok but we would really benefit from green bins for food & garden waste as well as the standard black & blue bins for the flats.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Fairly quickly - although it is a bit of a proceed and not sure whether the Cambridge city council or building management is responsible for certain things

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

More information on the parking for disability blue badge would be useful

Eagle Street - The development itself is pretty impressive

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Overall a great living space in a great location with access to a fantastic variety of shops, pubs and restaurants. Lovely own space with thoughts into young families. Parking options could be better.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Often when reporting issues to the council, you get passed from moillar to post as no one knows or wants to take responsibility for issues that arise.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

How hot the flats get. No way to clean outside windows
