Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of 42 Rivington Street indicate a mixed living experience. Tenants praise responsive management and a helpful superintendent, along with generally good neighbors and solid heating and water pressure. However, pest control remains a significant concern, especially with recurring roach issues. Some residents note delayed or temporary repairs, inconsistent maintenance prioritization, and occasional security and lighting problems in common areas. Noise levels vary, impacting comfort, and garbage management receives average marks. While the building shows commitment to addressing tenant needs, improvements in pest extermination, maintenance responsiveness, and building security could enhance overall satisfaction. Prospective renters should weigh these factors accordingly.

It is ok

Pros

- responsive super - trash outdoors

Cons

- insecure door at times - lighting in halls and staircases - non tenants hanging out inside the building in the halls

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Short and sweet

Pros

Management has been around for years so they are aware of building issues and how to fix them.

Cons

They’ve been around and will only fix the items they feel are urgent. They also tend to delay repairs and do a half ass job. Most times it is a temporary fix and you will be calling them back in few months or weeks to fix it again.

Advice to the owners

Treat all the tenants equally in terms of repairs and service responses.
