One Ardmore Residents Claim Mold Is Sickening Them, Report Says

ARDMORE, PA — The apartments at One Ardmore took years to be developed and completed. And about a year after it the luxury apartments in Lower Merion Township opened, some residents are saying mold in the building is making them sick.

A new report from the Philadelphia Inquirer details the allegations against the property and its owner, Apartment Investment & Management Co. (Amico).

One Ardmore was built by Dranoff Properties.

Several residents claim mold has sickened them and causing long-term health issues.

One former resident, Matt Amici, said on Facebook that he began experiencing symptoms of illness related to mold within two weeks of moving in.

After performing a test, Amici said several strains of harmful mold were detected in his unit.

According to the Inquirer, another resident, Hannah Wood, had a runny nose for months and would suffer asthma attacks in her bedroom.

Amico brought in a consultant to test the building for mold, and the results showed nothing abnormal, according to the Inquirer.

The company issued a statement this week, saying it takes the allegations seriously but that residents did not inform Amico of the issue per the leasing agreement.
