Although students are moved in, finishing touches are still being made on the Landmark high-rise.

Living in one of downtown Ann Arbor’s pricey new student apartment buildings isn’t so luxurious just yet.

The 14-story Landmark high-rise, which developers rushed to complete in time for students to move in Aug. 30, is still a work in progress, the Michigan Daily reports.

Several of the promised amenities in the 606-bed building have not been completed yet and tenants are encountering minor maintenance issues, according to the report.

The outdoor entertainment deck with a hot tub, fire pits and barbecue grills is not expected to open until the end of November, while the first-floor retail tenants are still completing their build-outs. Retail tenants include No Thai!, Tim Hortons, World of Beer and 7-Eleven.

To compensate for the ongoing construction, Landmark owner American Campus Communities, the company that purchased the building from Campus Acquisitions last month, awarded each resident a $500 Visa gift card or rent reduction.
