Washer/Dryer
First oor units are equipped with a stacked washer/dryer. There are a
couple things to note about these machines:
They are front loading, therefore require less soap than top loading machines.

The washer and dryer can operate at the same me.
Heang and Air Condioning
Heang: First oor apartments have forced air heang (unlike baseboard heang in the
rest of the building).
Air Condioning: First oor apartments are also equipped with air condioning.
Thermostat : A single programmable thermostat controls both the heat and AC for the
enre apartment (unlike the zonal heang systems in other apartments).
Trash and Recycling
The garbage and recycling containers for rst oor residents are located in the loading dock.
Tilt and Turn Windows
The lt and turn windows in rst oor apartments have two opons for opening - either at the
side or at the top. In either opon the window opens inward.
To lock the window, turn handle so that the handle is vercal and pointed down.
For a side-open window, push the handle to the horizontal posion and pull open.
For a top-open window, turn the handle even further so that it is vercal but pointed up
and pull open.
