Hi! Curious if any current or former residents of Webster Apartments (4228 Dawson St) have experienced condensation or moisture issues around windows or walls?

I lived there in the early 2000’s and there was a serious mold and moisture problem that eventually forced me to leave. I had to get moisture wickers in closets, and I had trouble breathing. Their answer was to paint antimicrobial paint over the problematic spots. It did not work. Good Luck.

Yeah, I’m currently dealing with this exact situation. The mold keeps coming back despite repeated cleanings, and we’re being told to run dehumidifiers 24/7 and leave windows cracked while the heat is on… all while covering the increased utility costs ourselves.

We’ve also been told they’re ‘actively looking into long-term solutions to a known moisture issue with the building,’ but there’s been no timeline or real update. Meanwhile, neighbors have already terminated their lease over the same issue, and their unit is already listed again for immediate move-in, which doesn’t exactly inspire confidence that anything is actually being fixed.

I really appreciate your response! I’ve been trying to figure out how long this has been going on and whether these ‘long-term solutions’ ever actually happen. Because aside from this, I genuinely love the place. It’s just becoming really frustrating dealing with constant cleaning and having personal items get damaged.

I lived there for almost 9 years and had really bad mold. I was also told to use the dehumidifier but I knew that would really raise my utility bill. I contacted the city and they came out to inspect but didn’t really do anything. They were more interested in the basement area fire extinguishers, electrical and exit signs. Waist of time.
