    - Broken, steep and slippery metal stairs.
    - Unresponsive landlord who doesn’t help.
    - Bad odor outside apartment unit.

    BE WARNED: WORST BUIDLING MANAGEMENT EVER
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Proximity to the park!! However nothing good to say about the actual building
    Cons:
    Terrible management, even worse superintendent. Never addressed any of our issues within our apartment. The building is consistently dirty. Trash management is horrid. Management and the super would not even respond to our service requests or emails. Just completely ignored.
    Advice to owner:
    Don’t let Douglas Elliman manage this property. The worst building I have ever lived in because of them.
