cockroaches are a problem
Pros
The doormen are amazing and the building itself is great — the roof is gorgeous, appliances in the unit are nice, etc.
Cons
There’s been a significant cockroach issue since late 2025 that management has not been able to get under control. There were cockroaches in my front closet, laundry closet, kitchen, bathroom, and in the trash room in my floor, and the exterminator was in my apartment at least every couple of weeks. Management didn’t take the issue seriously enough to the point of resolving it, and were dismissive on multiple occasions.
Things are going downhill…
Pros
Doormen are generally pleasant & helpful. Relatively convenient area; major subways are no more than a 10 min walk away.
Cons
Roaches have been an issue lately due to a lack of extermination. Management WILL NOT respond to your emails or maintenance requests… there’s currently no way to track requests or packages at all. The porter is nice & tries his best, but the super is too busy (despite him living in the building) to care… even if you have heat issues. Yes. Heat issues in a 4k a month apartment. The building is also not clean in common areas.
Advice to the owners
Communicate & actually do your job! Stop blaming us for everything… but also take accountability & complaints seriously.
