I'm in 702 on the northwest side. I have gotten the soot several times in the past few weeks with the balcony work and high winds. I would love to see this problem solved. I am concerned as to what the 'soot' actually consists of since it is all over my place.
That being said, a roof replacement would be great but without a complete tear off I wonder if we will solve this problem.

My internet is back up and running, so thanks to everyone who hassled Roddy to get this done.
I do have a couple of items that I wanted to point out / add to Robin's comments:
- I noticed a new door on the garbage chute on the 7th floor, but we are still having terrible odor issues up here. Last Sunday, the smell was so strong, I had to light candles in my unit to cover up the awful stench. Can this please be investigated? I appreciate the investment of the new door, but something else has to be done.
- Is anyone else on the 7th floor getting a large amount of roof debris into their unit lately? I spent hours cleaning my place yesterday morning, left to go out, and when I returned at 10pm, I had to vacuum/dust/clean all over again. I am just curious if this is limited to a certain side of the 7th floor, or if it's everyone. I know there are plans to replace our roof later this year, but it is exhausting cleaning this much - not to mention the stains I have on my bed sheets and couch. I have saved a sample of the soot for Brian as he requested. Is it possible to arrange the roof repairs for this summer? Can something else be done to prevent this debris?
