In the wake of Quincy Quarry News reporting on an expensive reskinning of a surely leaking newer apartment building in Quincy Center built and owned by Quincy Mayor Thomas P. Koch’s going away most generous to his campaign fund as well as variously further controversial developers, word of even more leaks elsewhere came Quincy Quarry News’ way.
Specifically, one of Quincy Quarry’s ever-growing legions of loyal readers dimed a link to a Reddit thread rife with words often NSFW about purported numerous water leaks in a recently completed high rent apartment complex on the former site of Quincy Hospital by one of Mayor Koch’s favorite developers.
These latest leaks make for at least the third such incident of chronic water leaks at a major apartment project built in Quincy by a connected developer in recent years.

Needless to say, three for three suggests at least a trend.
Such also baits understandable questions as regards quality control by a certain construction company as well as with the efficacy of the inspections imposed by the City of Quincy’s Inspectional Services Department.
As for the tenants of the first known leaking luxury apartment complex and which is located in Marina Bay, they have lodged a class action lawsuit against the building’s owner over the inconveniences they suffered given chronic leaks.

Inconveniences these serious rent-paying renters have allegedly suffered include mold and which can cause serious problems for those with respiratory issues.
Returning to the latest and third site of leaks, the words posted on Reddit about the leaks at their new high rent for Quincy apartments were — again — often NSFW for a shared workplaces outside of a construction or similar sorts of workplaces where language is known to became salty but is typically tolerated.
For example, in the Quincy Quarry newsroom.

Needless to say, Quincy Quarry’s ever-growing legions of loyal readers can count on Quincy Quarry to be on the look out for more leaks of any and all sorts as well as then report on same as might be appropriate.
For example, if there are any leaks about leaks at the Hospital Hill apartment developer’s two adjacent projects totaling roughly three hundreds units in total that are fast approaching completion opposite the Quincy Center MBTA station and relying on the former Masonic Temple as their focal point, count on Quincy Quarry to exposé any such leaks.
When it rains, it pours, in.
April Fools’ Day is usually 4/1. The proposed raise in pay for Mayor Koch is a joke. Beyond my comprehension this man is mayor. This is the hospital. The man who made it possible for Quincy to be the largest city in 9 states without hospital.
Art,
True that. My only quibble is that in Quincy joke is spelled “joch”
No need for an indoor swimming pool!
It is great to see that the City of Quincy is now getting such a great reputation over the quality of its brand-spanking new apartments and condominiums.
Mayor Koch is certainly proud of what his new developer friends have done for the reputation of our fair city. He is constantly telling us what a great job he is doing transforming our city for the better.
It truly is something to be proud of!
