Great community and apartment
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is older, but most of the units have been renovated. The super is excellent and very helpful. Water pressure is great. Tenants are very friendly with a great sense of community. The apartments are spacious with high ceilings.
Cons:
There are a lot of rats outside the building and around the trash area. Some of the residents smoke in the building, and you can smell it in the halls. The elevator is broken sometimes. The package room has been broken into several times. The front door glass has been broken 3 times over the past year.
Advice to owner:
Fix the washing machines and dryers. Better security for building.
