    Review Summary for 624 West 139 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 624 WEST 139 STREET highlight a friendly neighborhood with good water pressure. However, concerns include unresponsive and difficult management, remodeling inconveniences, pests, and poor cleanliness. Tenants feel disregarded by landlords focused on profit over tenant satisfaction, leading to dissatisfaction and an overall decline in building quality. Improvement suggestions include better communication, increased staff support, and addressing maintenance issues promptly. Unfortunately, the consensus leans towards not recommending this building due to management shortcomings and deteriorating living conditions.

    Greedy Slumlords (Do Not Rent Here)
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The super Henry is a really nice guy. The neighborhood is lively and friendly.
    Cons:
    The landlords are only interested in moving the current tenants out so they can turn the apartments into overpriced dormitories. They remodeled the units making the kitchen space into a bedroom and making a weird ‘open concept’ living space in the dining room. There’s rats in the walls of the first floor and in the garbage area.
    Advice to owner:
    Stop being a slumlord. Treat your tenants with dignity and respect.

    This WAS a great place to live.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Friendly neighbors that look out for each other. Excellent, hard working super.
    Cons:
    New (as of 2019) building owners and management are difficult to communicate with and work with.
    Advice to owner:
    Develop better communication with your tenants. Management office and building manager is terrible and difficult to work with.
