The following changes have come about in the last ten years. It has taken a great deal of work, time and effort, but all was done without special levies, and with only moderate increases, to keep pace with inflation.

Previously, Knightsbridge Mansions had:

no interior courtyard garden or fountain,

very few exterior plantings in the front garden, and no plantings along the side yard,

spotty security at best,

no internal intercom system to communicate with security guards or guests,

a lift covered with ugly carpet, a plastic floor and florescent lighting.

corridors with tubular, factory-like florescent lighting.

light wells that were unsightly and unsanitary.

a seventy-year old antiquated electrical system that was faulty and dangerous.

plumbing issues that wasted an inordinate amount of water for the building and were damaging the common property, as well as creating damp issues.

a “handyman” who was supposed to clean, but who was hard to find.

no real Conduct Rules or control as to community obligations, leasing or refurbishing of units.

no newsletters or regular communication with owners.
