    Great neighbors, poor management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious units, (mostly) quiet neighbors, great location.
    Cons:
    Poorly maintained building. Super is friendly but does the bare minimum in terms of upkeep or repairs.
    Advice to owner:
    Take some pride in managing the space. Clean more regularly, update broken fixtures, add some amenities like postal lockers.
