Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews reveal a building plagued by significant issues despite its convenient location near subway lines and neighborhood amenities. Tenants frequently report severe pest infestations, mold, leaks, and poor structural maintenance, including collapsing ceilings and water damage. Management responsiveness is generally criticized as slow or unhelpful, exacerbating residents' frustrations. While some note friendly neighbors and a helpful superintendent, noise and cleanliness concerns persist. Garbage management is often rated poorly, with complaints about foul conditions. Rent stabilization status varies among tenants, but the overall tenant sentiment advises caution due to ongoing maintenance, health, and safety problems.
