    Review Summary for 1520 Story Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 1520 Story Avenue reveal a mixed living experience. Some tenants praise the building's cleanliness, gym facilities, and responsive maintenance team, describing it as a nice, well-managed place with friendly staff. However, others report serious issues such as persistent elevator outages, poor garbage management, pest infestations, and disrespectful superintendent behavior. Noise levels vary, with complaints about thin walls and disruptive neighbors. Water pressure and heating quality also receive inconsistent feedback. Security concerns arise due to package theft and unreliable camera systems. Overall, while there are positive aspects, significant management and maintenance improvements are needed for a consistently comfortable living environment.

    1520 is a dump! Starting with the Superintendent Juan Garcia. He’s a creep!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The maintenance guys are pleasant. (Jr. & the other guy) Hector (the repair man) is nice. Javier is ok.
    Cons:
    The elevator is always out of order. 1of the 2 has been out for 3 months & counting. Packages are stolen daily. The stairs are filthy. The lobby smells like cat urine. The superintendent (Juan) is disrespectful and nonchalant about repairs. He flirts with me and other tenants. The cameras only work when Juan says so. The water always shuts off.
    Advice to owner:
    Have compassion for the tenants who actually pay rent. We need a new superintendent!!
