The Common property is bordered by residential properties. We aim to keep our relationship with our neighbors as positive and unobtrusive as possible. We ask that all renters, audience members, and guests are mindful of that fact and ensure that no driveways are blocked, no properties are trespassed upon, and that noise levels outside of the building are kept at a reasonable level. The Common reserves the right to end any event early if valid complaints from the neighbors are received.
