The biggest problem we had at Ashton Place was not the building There are many nice people in the building as well There are some grumpy old men that live in the building There is one woman who is very controlling She manages to get on council each year and she is a bit of a crazy person She comes across as friendly but she is gossipy and into everyone's business She is the type that will harass you for not cutting up your cardboard into appropriate sized pieces or report you to the management company for having an air conditioner Trouble is does She follow the rules Hardly And if you ever point this out to her be prepared to feel her wrath Some have said she's crazy and she has made some of the nicest people here miserable at times So I d have to say she is the biggest problem at Ashton Place There have been some very grumpy old people living at Ashton Place and this gal that I described above is one of them There has been some turn over at Ashton Place in recent months and there are some younger people moving into the building which I think will help offset some of the crazies the controlling old fogies

Ashton Place is located in a great part of North Van It is only steps away from the RBC bank Starbucks and Extra Foods The location is central yet quiet Not only that at the other end of 18th Street is a lovely hiking trail that winds around and crosses a river from time to time Mahon Park The building has been well maintained and the top floors are rather nice with vaulted ceilings and skylights The hallways are cheerful since they have natural light from the skylights in the corner and a large archway across from the elevator Those on the 1st floor get nice yards some even have a private entrance I don't know how anyone can stand to live on the 2nd floor because these units have neither the vaulted ceilings and skylights or a yard and the hallway on this floor has no natural light except for that which manages to pass through some lame glass bricks
