Overall OK building but very unresponsive super
Former Tenant
Pros:
washer / dryer in unit, on more quiet street in east village
Cons:
balcony faces a courtyard that is overgrown and not taken care of so expect a lot of squirrels / birds when you go to sit outside. super is veryyyy unresponsive usually had to go to management company to get him to answer (one time they changed everyone’s keys without giving us new ones or telling everyone for two days)
Advice to owner:
better management!
