Save your money and run
Former Tenant
Pros:
I have really nothing good to say about the building other than the location can be cool
Cons:
The super did not respond to anything ever. In a year he showed up once after a huge leak through the window and just said I should put towels down and left. The one other time he responded he just sent me a YouTube link to fix something myself. Management will never respond to anything ever as well. They also failed to inform us they let an incredibly loud gym move into the leased space and we were woken up as early as 5am almost every morning for months. The trash situation is terrible there’s rats everywhere down there and the dryers don’t work at all after I chose this building because of it having laundry. It’s also incredibly overpriced save your money. They also failed to turn on heat for large parts of the winter until multiple people complained. The windows had no locks our entire lease presenting a huge safety issue and there was a lot of water damage when we moved in
