I hope I could give this building 0 stars.
Everything started week after I moved here. 1. Neighbors were cooking something very smelly all the time, so you simply can not enjoy your balcony.
2. Elevators most of the time are not working, so it is possible to stuck in the queue.
3. There is a possibility to get a penalty for forgetting your keys inside the apartment.
4. COCKROACHES. Loooots and lots of cockroaches. As a man myself I tried to fight with them, closed some holes behind the stove, in the kitchen, in the bathroom. Didn't help. Management called a pest control, but it didn't help, and they only can ca them on tuesdays, so if you ask for it on monday, they will come only 8 days after. The poison didn't help at all, the infestation was too deep. During 2-3 months I killed over 300! Cockroaches in sooo many different places.
Overall, I would not suggest renting here, it might be a little cheaper then other rentals, but trust me, you don't want it. Unless you don't care about living comfortably in a clean building with proper neighbours and without cockroaches. In that case, ok, rent here.
I could've include trillions of picture of cockroaches, but it is not very ethical.
Let me know if you need some, I can send:)
I AM SO HAPPY THAT I LEFT THIS BUILDING!

The management of the Sheppard Centre Apartments by Axes Investment is the worst you would ever encounter. Of the 3 buildings, 2,4, & 6 Forest Laneway, 4 Forest Laneway building gets all the preferential treatment and the latest technology. The other tenants at 2 and 6 Forest Laneway are forced to reside in sub-standard conditions and charged sky-rocketed rent. Water is turned off in the building for an entire day from 5am or before that and the management of the building at 2 Forest Laneway chose to take the day off rather than be available to answer questions from tenants who were forced to lose a day of work or school due to no water at all in the building. The coin machine to load funds to the laundry card is often out of service leaving tenants again to be inconvenienced with no alternative arrangements made. The building management is certain to be present in office on the 1st of every month to collect rent cheques, but doesn't give a hoot about the numerous malfunctions of the premises and the inconvenience suffered by the paying tenants. I would like to see the Landlord and Tenants Association or what ever their correct name is together with the Better Business Bureau take some sort of action against Axes Investment and their management on the mediocre managing of these 2 buildings at 2 & 6 Forest Laneway and ensure the tenants received deserving living conditions for the high rent they pay.
