Reviews

Former tenant·6 months ago

Loved living here

Pros

Responsive super, really nice apartment with large living area. Convenient location. Great for hosting!

Cons

Occasional mice in the trash room and sometimes mail got stolen. It was also quite loud, but you get used to it.

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Nice apt

Pros

Close to subway/whole foods/target, good room sizes, super very responsive. Never had any cockroach issues. Really enjoyed this apartment.

Cons

This building faces the street and the windows are not sound proof- you can really hear the street noise, but it's doable. We had huge holes in our apartment where mice were sneaking in (2 that I saw). Management took a while to come patch up the holes.
