Dear members of the CityView community:
The CityView Resident Experience Committee and both boards are excited to announce that the new CityViewPhilly.org website is now live!
As we’ve previously noted, the website will serve two needs:
- Make information more easily available to residents.
- Make our condominiums easier to find when people are looking for a place to live. Forty-two percent of survey respondents said they found CityView by doing their own searches, and competing buildings in the area have their own website.
The new site includes:
- Full-site search, including the complete CityView Resident Handbook. References in the Handbook are linked to the appropriate sections, so no searching for other sections when they’re mentioned.
- A general information section that addresses many items residents have requested, including topics such as the difference between condominium living and other settings, background information on why policies are what they are, service elevator protocols, tips & tricks, and a general overview of the area for those new to Philadelphia.
Note: This site WILL NOT replace BuildingLink, however, it will give you access to much of the nonsecured BuildingLink information in an easier-to-access location and format.
Some resources (e.g., contact information and key fob locations) are password protected, but the password is listed on the BuildingLink homepage. (Resident testers, please note that the password has changed from the one used on the test site.) Other secured information will link directly to the library documents or functions in BuildingLink so you can easily access them.
We would like to thank and acknowledge the dozens of residents who participated in our resident testing for their efforts and insightful comments that helped us to improve the site tremendously over the last month.
If you’d like more guidance through the site and what it offers, we will be offering virtual walkthroughs of the site via Zoom (30 minutes) on Monday, May 6 at 11:00 am and 7:00pm (Zoom links are in the all-residents email sent by the office; please contact the office if you can’t find them), as well as in-person walkthroughs (1 hour) on Tuesday, May 14 at 11:00 am and 7:00pm in the Hamilton Room.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please reach out to us via the Contact Resident Help Committee link at the bottom of any page on the site.
The Resident Experience Committee
