Review Summary for 156 Front Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 156 Front Street reveal a prime location with good-sized units and central access to transportation as key benefits. Tenants commend friendly neighbors and the rent-controlled options, but consistently highlight poor building maintenance, unclean common areas, and an ongoing pest infestation, particularly mice and rats. Management and superintendents are widely viewed as unresponsive and unprofessional, aggravating the building's upkeep issues. Noise levels and heating vary, with some reporting adequate heat but others noting problems. Reviewers suggest urgent attention to pest control, improved building cleanliness, and more responsive management to enhance resident satisfaction and living conditions.

Former Tenant
Pros:
Rent controlled and centrally located to transportation.

Please maintain the building including appliances, which were super old.
