Okay but happy to move out
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location - 2 blocks away from the F/G, walking distance from the Brooklyn piers and Dumbo, quiet neighborhood
Cons:
Building management is nonresponsive and changes every 5-8 months; consistent issue with heat. In the past year, multiple issues regarding mice and rats, partly due to mismanagement of trash. Issues with leaking radiators. Multiple building / city code violations.
Over 1 year ago
Management rarely responds, re-keyed front door without notifying residents

Cons:
Pests
Musty smell
Management does not respond or communicate when a change is being made. To rekey the door without properly informing residents and ensuring they have keys is unacceptable.
