    Management and Super are Awful
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    ...the rent was only raised $30 for our second year.
    Cons:
    During our second year here, somewhere in the building a pipe burst and it seriously affected our bathroom mold in the walls the whole nine yards. After trying multiple times to get some in to fix and management and our super not answering our phone calls, they finally fixed it haphazardly. For sure was not fixed or resolved properly. Would not recommend this building.
    Advice to owner:
    Just get better....
