Update

Condo owners, in general, are cantankerous and not built for communal living over which they do not personally have total control. I'll betcha the board members and building managers are in their units tonight applying bandages and drinking heavily.

I still am grateful they tried.

UPDATE

Attention All Residents,

A large protest is occurring in the downtown Seattle retail district. It was marching down 2nd Ave for a while but after turning up to City Hall for about an hour the protestors are now moving back towards Westlake. Since it does not appear that PSQ will be impacted there will be no need to lock down the elevators. Again, we understand the concerns some residents raised. This was only considered as a security measure to restrict access to residential floors if there was a risk of entry into the lobby.

Sincerely,

Florentine Manager and Board of Directors

Honestly, if I was anywhere near those protests, I would be drinking heavily too. And I don’t live in a condo. I have friends who do, and it sounds to me like being on the board of a condo is a thankless task, right up their with working in HR.

Phew, I'm glad that there was no need for action in the end. I wasn't sure whether condos were likely to be affected or only shops but I was a bit worried about yours. Locking the elevators would have been a great wheeze.

Locking the elevators seemed eminently sensible to me.

Good grief. I'm glad nothing happened in your building. At the risk of sounding...well...bitchy.... those people complaining about the elevators being locked would probably have been the same ones suing the building managers if damage were done to their homes or to their bodies. *sigh*
