Residents in Hyde Park apartment complex say they’re concerned for their safety

People living in one Hyde Park apartment complex are bringing their concerns directly to us.

After months of pleading for management to make a change, Dakota Carey said he felt his next best option was to reach out to us.

“We’ve had ongoing issues with trash and security in this building,” Carey said.

To get into Lumi Hyde Park, you need a key fob. But I found out for myself while visiting Wednesday that the doors don’t lock.

“This one doesn’t even require a fob. So, you can just walk right in. It’s taped open so that anybody can just come from the streets at any old time,” Carey explained.

Carey fears anyone can just walk in and have access to the commons room, too.

“This area has a little commons area, a coffee machine, and a gym upstairs. It’s wide open for anyone to walk right into,” Carey added.

Carey also said his motorcycle was stolen because the garage gate never closes like it should.

“That was here for three weeks after I had moved in. I had it shipped down here in early August, and it was gone by the end of August,” Carey said.
