The correct name is Presbyterian Apartments. Not Harmony Towers. The permission to purchase was voided after the arrest of the buyer in New York. Earlier this year. Also over 29 fentanyl deaths in the building and no hot water during the winter months. Put the blame where it belongs. On Presbyterian Apartments Management.
