I hope the residents of Milwaukee have done their homework about Warren Barr before buying a home at the Park Lafayette. He has left a trail of tears and foreclosures in Chicago in condos he constructed under another LLC. Barr has a history of cutting significant corners and passing along the problems (water infiltration, shoddily constructed balconies) to the residents. One building needs over 6 million dollars of repair work to address a water infiltration problem. Is Barr paying for it? He is forcing residents to do so and by doing this, forcing many into foreclosure.

@SouthLoopChi> Thanks for the info I’ll have to look into it. It would be a shame as Park Lafayette appears to be a great addition to our skyline and the way it has been presented here in Milwaukee has been very professional.
