    Great Super intendent, responsive management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building was well maintained and the tennants took pride in our building overall. Both Super's who lived in building were EXCEPTIONALLY responsive to questions and concerns, extremely flexible with their timing, and often went above and beyond to help us with things. this made living in the apartment a breeze :)
    Cons:
    Occasionally, the heat was turned on a bit too low for the temperature outside and the apartment was a bit chilly. It was never frankly cold or uncomfortable/unsafe but just a little cold.
