Dear Ms. Quinones,
I received your response, however the one report you sent me was for 101 Portland Avenue. I did not request 101 Portland Avenue, I requested 101 Porter Avenue. I'm not sure if you searched the correct address or not, so could you please re-check and see if there are any incidents for 101 Porter Avenue.
Thank you,
Resident
