Are the “Bright, open rooftop sun terraces” still closed? If so, might be time to take the pictures and descriptions off the website, eh?
Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, the sun terraces are seasonal, however, they will be open in the Spring!
is the party room in the south building still underway or was this just a myth to get people to sign a lease?”
Thanks for your comment! The party room is available for use during office hours or for after hours reservations. If you would like more information please visit the Management Office or call 703.920.3112.
When will residents have the option to subscribe to Verizon cable/internet services instead of Comcast?
And what is Management doing to ensure that residents with pets pick up after their dogs? Walking along Scott St is absolutely revolting some mornings.
Verizon doesn’t provide service here. You would need to contact Verizon directly for more information.
In regards to pets, we will post a blog on proper pet care at the property, and we also have team members who clean the property daily.
Thank you for your feedback
Without a piano in this complex, there is no life…there used to be a piano in my other building in Rosslyn, it was a surprise to many tenants to hear music coming out from the club room of the building. But at Wellington, it is getting boring each day without a piano, so many would love to play it. Well, some buildings in Arlingon have a Grand Piano, wonder when Wellington will understand Art and Culture?
We currently do not have the space for a piano. I’m sorry you feel this way. Any other suggestions you can provide?
Jeez, is this the same guy who complained about not having a piano a few months ago? I would think that if having a piano in your building was that important to you, you’d move into a building that has a piano, instead of moving into a building and asking them to install a club room centered around one. Or, ya know, buy your own. You can count me among the tenants who: 1) do not find life boring due to the lack of a piano in my apartment building, 2) would be annoyed “to hear music coming from the club room of the building”, and 3) would rather you continue using available space for the gym, computer lounge, etc.
Is there a timeframe yet for when the pool will open? And are there any plans for a grand opening celebration again?
We’re looking to open it for Memorial Day. Stay tune and we will post updates
And info on the pool hours would be helpful too, thanks.
Yes, please do tell us the pool hours. I can’t find it ANYWHERE!!! It’s currently 11:22 on a Friday and I don’t see a lifeguard on duty, so I don’t think the answer will bode well for me. Bummer. I was hoping to enjoy the pool without the screaming children. Might go hop the fence.
Here’s the hours: Closed Mondays the rest of the week 10am – 8pm
I was wondering how many times a week are the elevators cleaned ? Last Thursday someone spilled something on the buttons in one of the elevators in North building. It still remains there after more than a week and it is disgusting. The elevators are getting worse day after day and the smell pets leave behind is sometimes unbearable. If the management doesn’t care about getting it cleaned regularly, at least the residents should use it responsibly.
For Wellington residents who do not have a patio/balcony, our current television options are only the monopoly that is comcast. For a multifamily building, that is quite restrictive. There is satellite technology that could serve to offer a much needed and deserved choice. If one satellite (a normal, household sized satellite, this wouldn’t be an enourmous monstrosity on the roof) were installed on the roof, everyone interested in satellite tv could receive it through a personal box in their apartment, and pay for their service only. Additional info is available here: http://http://blog.livethewellington.com/community-notices/welcome-the-wellington/#comment-128www.allbusiness.com/entertainment-arts/broadcasting-industry-subscription/13002020-1.html
I hope that Wellington management SERIOUSLY considers this. Something like this would surely be of interest to many current residents as well as potential tenants interested in quality television at a fair value.
New resident was wondering if anyone knows if there is a pet sitter residing in the complex? It would be really convenient if there was so that they already have parking pass, building key, etc. Thanks & looking forward to the pool party!!
Thanks so much for you comment and questions! This is exactly what the blog is about! Can you send us your email address, we’d love to post this on our Facebook Page and hopefully get you a sitter! Thanks!
