Sanitary Issues Need to be Fixed
Pros
Apartments are nicely sized, they have a great view. Laundry room is big. Package room workers are nice and very helpful. Loading zone in the back of the building is convenient.
Cons
We’ve had roach issues since we moved into our new apartment. We had someone come every week and it has not stopped since they are not solving the root issues. The management is responsive but not good at communicating. They came into our apartments twice without us knowing and admitted it over an email. There was also legionnaires that was found in two of the towers and they had no water for months. I believe it is resolved now, but there were a lot of issues solving that. I believe we had some mold issues in our previous unit, but havent had any in the current unit. The vents should also be cleaned out properly as it looks like they haven’t been in a long time.
Advice to the owners
If the roach issues were resolved or treated more aggressively then we would have considered staying longer. We’ve been here for 5 years and are fed up with roaches and lack of communication regarding leak repairs. The vents should also be checked since it looks like they haven’t been cleaned out in awhile and could cause mold to spread if there’s a lack of ventilation.
Worth it if you get a below market rate deal
Pros
- relatively cheap rent - close to subway - good laundry facility - effective use of space for the square footage - cheap utilities bill
Cons
- loud neighbors - very thin walls
Advice to the owners
Please email residents about maintenance or other visits rather than post it by the elevators.
