    Review Summary for The Crossing
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent renters at 1966 1 Avenue appreciate spacious apartments, on-site amenities like gyms, laundry, and a generally friendly neighbor community. Many note attractive views and renovations improving interiors and shared areas. However, management responsiveness is frequently criticized as slow or unhelpful, especially regarding maintenance requests and pest control, with recurring issues of rodents and cockroaches reported. Noise levels and cleanliness vary, with some complaints about mold, trash management, and security concerns. Rent increases and a sense of neglect toward long-term tenants have caused dissatisfaction. While the location and unit size appeal, renters urge better upkeep and more attentive management to enhance living conditions.
