It would not be at all surprising to know that the positive reviews below were written by the deceitful sales force of Magellan development. Checkout the ripoffreports website to learn why dealing with Magellan should never be done on good faith and you must always have an aggressive attorney advocate from the start. First off, to the poor suckers who bought into the Lakeshore East development, whether Aqua, townhomes, Lancaster, Chandler, or Regatta: Not all were aware that they would be slapped with 30 years of additional city taxes to pay for the park, which Magellan turned over to the City Park District and yet which the buildings have to pay to maintain. Yup, all the expenses and more of a private park while having it be fully accessible to the entire City. Now, as for the buildings, take a look at the Chandler. Despite the fact that the building is 'owned' by the condo owners, Magellan took possession themselves of the retail space on the first floor, controlling a chunk of the building and planning to keep retail monies for themselves. It's ugly, covered in paper, and will never rent and the building occupants can do nothing with the space. Magellan tried the same thing at Regatta, but there were so many legal violations Magellan had that the building got a lawyer and Magellan returned the space to the building. The numbers of issues are too long to list here, go to the ripoffreport website to learn more.
