MILWAUKEE – One elevator for 230 units, the people living at the Locust Court Apartments say they are fed up after an elevator broke down.
They say it’s been that way for a while, and it’s not the first time it’s happened at the Riverwest building. Last year, it took months to fix.
Those living at Locust Court say it feels like their concerns are being ignored.
It isn’t always easy for resident Frederick Grace to get around. Lately, the Vietnam War veteran said it’s been even more difficult.
“This building should not be in the state that it’s in,” Grace said. “There’ve been times I’ve had to wait a half hour because the elevator will be loaded.”
