Has the heat situation improved here?

No, it has actually worsened. 80’ in the winter months. Opening a window doesn’t help and the person that controls it is always cold (??)

Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 234 8 Street highlight its excellent location in Park Slope and spacious units with unique in-unit brick walls, appealing to renters valuing neighborhood charm. However, the building suffers from inconsistent maintenance, including frequent boiler failures in winter and slow management responsiveness. Cleanliness and garbage management receive mixed feedback, with calls for brighter hallways and daily upkeep. Some tenants note issues with building security and problematic neighbors. Despite these challenges, the building's quiet environment, good water pressure, and solid heating when working make it attractive for some. Enhanced management presence and building updates could significantly improve living experience.

This building has a lot of potential

Pros

Great location, in-unit brick walls give a lot of character, and spacious units.

Cons

This building is not well maintained. Responsiveness from management is slow. The boiler for the building breaks every year in the dead of winter. Tenants had to get hotel rooms one year because of the cold. Lots of turnover here. Packages frequently stolen, and security cameras often don’t work.

Advice to the owners

Daily clean up in the hallways, painted walls, and brighter hallway lights could go a long way in making this building a Park Slope gem.
