Martial law arrives in Soho Central built by Century Properties

Martial law arrives in Soho Central built by Century Properties

The title was strongly suggested by a unit owner due such displays of dictatorial power read here and in previous posts.  So I have changed the title from "Caged" being the immediate or now long-lasting situation to the overall goal as acted upon by the authorities that assume control over our money, homes and lives.

I had written of this situation and spoken to many people about this manipulation of the Unit Owners by the management and developer-controlled unelected Board.  As was told to me once again after answering a question as to why there was no place in the building such as a lounge or even sufficient chairs in the lobby, "we are cows to be corralled."

What is the procedure?  We enter the building with security guards opening the doors and then when in the area of the elevators immediately directed to an available elevator whether we want it or not.  This has been boosted with the new edict preventing more people who are Unit Owners or SPAs from being in the lobby and ordering them to their units or cells.

What other means have been employed to prevent as much Unit Owner mingling as possible?

Unelected Board of Director and other such meetings are private and secret.

Bench seating was removed from the lobby.

Pool lounge chairs though inexpensive are limited.

The Christmas Party was poorly promoted and organized enabling cancellation.

The Function Room though seldom used is locked.

The Residents' Lounge is locked and used as a special meeting room with an attached foyer taken in violation of the Condominium Act for management further discouraging use as a lounge.  In fact, the space is used for management purposes.

40th floor roof area of the Shaw Tower was locked.
