Worst building ever
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nothing to say that is a pro
Cons:
Super destroyed building more. Drugs drugs drugs. Lots of drugs. Lots of homeless people moving in. No heat and super does not fix anything. Herion addicts doing drugs in the stairs and sleeping in the stairs. Tenants grown adults hang out in the stairs bring furniture and speakers and have parties.fire hazard stair cases have furniture stored. Tenants use stair case as storage instead of their apartments.
Advice to owner:
Find new managers

This building is a disaster!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Only good thing is the Balcony
Cons:
Everything dirty, elevators, staircase, also... elevator doesn’t work like 5 time a week which is ridiculous because there is 14 floors and a lot of people are older and disabled. Super is hard to find all the time.
Advice to owner:
Do better, people still paying rent and it’s like you don’t care.
