Hammersmith is a great area to settle down thanks to its proximity to shops, cafes, pubs. Having the Thames river right next to the building is just amazing especially in Summer. You can have a nice walk in the neighborhood, stop for a nice pint. You live in London without the hassle of the city centre.

Building management by Centrick is the worst I've even seen. They do not act on the issues we raise.

Wish I knew how bad Centrick, the management company is! I activelly loocked for a flat in this block because I love the location and was in search of a modern flat. Unfortunately, once I moved I realised the buiding management is the worst.

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

Great location, easy walk to Hammersmith tube station, Westfield shopping centre, local high street with some great independant restaurants and bars and big supermarkets. Also very close to the river which makes for a great place to walk or run, and there are some great pubs along there too. Its on a busy road which is good for buses and traffic flows easy if you have a car its close to the motorway and easy route into Central London. I love living here!

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

Yes - there was an issue with the lift which was resolved pretty quickly. And they have a 24 hour line so I can contact them anytime. They're pretty easy to deal with unlike others I've used.

The corridors can get warm in summer but theyre also warm in winter which helps to keep my heating bill down so not really complaining about it!
