Horrible. Horrible. Horrible
Former Tenant

Good location. That’s it.

This building is very poorly managed. You cannot get in touch with any of the management. Disgusting.

Sell the building.

Don’t even bother
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to riverside park.
Cons:
Everything. The super is terrible. Garbage piles up everywhere and packages always go missing. The building is poorly maintained and if something breaks in your apartment it probably won’t get fixed unless you tell them there are sparks of fire flying.
Advice to owner:
I have no advice because you won’t listen anyways
