Bad management and uncleanly! Raises rent!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Smaller building with not a lot of tenants
Nice block to live on
Cons:
They raised the rent twice and made ZERO improvements in the building. In fact in the 2 years I’ve been here it has gotten worse
super only takes out garbage nothing more in terms of cleanliness, does not mop, windex
Doors nothing
elevator is constantly broken with no communication from management and it it’s JANKY
roaches
no laundry room because they don’t refused to put in sprinklers so they closed it down for tenants
the basement is disgusting and has only gotten worse it is NOT clean
management refuses to let you pay any other way other than mailing a check
Advice to owner:
Fix the building to match the price! Other buildings in the area keep up much better for the same price
