    Poor Building Management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Amazing space and location. Can't beat the private outdoor space we had and proximity to train stations and necessary stores.
    Cons:
    We had a CRAZY neighbor upstairs - would play music all night (1am-4am) all week and when communicated to the landlord, they refused to do anything. Multiple 311 reports and nothing. The ambulance had to come one night and take away the neighbor (from possible overdose). Nothing was done until the CEILING collapsed on us.
