Review Summary for 520 2 Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Reviews for 520 2 Avenue highlight the building's cleanliness, spacious units, and ample amenities, including a gym and security features, as major positives. Many tenants find management generally responsive and appreciate a strong community vibe and good security. However, frequent elevator malfunctions and prolonged maintenance work are common frustrations. Pest control appears inconsistent, with some reports of roaches despite others having no issues. Water pressure varies, and some note occasional brown water. Noise levels are mostly manageable, and neighbors tend to be friendly. Pricing is viewed as high, with mixed opinions on value and occasional dissatisfaction with management responsiveness.
