    Review Summary for 210 North 12 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 210 North 12 Street in Brooklyn highlight its excellent location, spacious living rooms, large windows, and proximity to the park as major positives, along with responsive superintendents. However, renters frequently mention serious management issues: poor building maintenance, unreliable heating, frequent elevator breakdowns, thin walls causing noise disturbances, security flaws including package theft and unsecured access, and pest problems like pigeons and flies. Garbage management and cleanliness are inconsistent. Numerous renters express dissatisfaction with management's responsiveness and lack of proactive problem-solving. Despite attractive amenities, many feel the building is overpriced relative to its condition and recommend significant improvements in security, infrastructure, and maintenance.

    Former Tenant

    Nice apt in a poorly managed building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Proximity to park
    Nice appliances
    Super was responsive for minor repairs, etc
    Good size roof with views
    Cons:
    Had packages stolen multiple times. In 2020 a deranged person came in through the front door in the middle of the night, attacked a resident in the hallway, and destroyed/opened every package they could get their hands on in the “secured” mail room.

    Parking gate often broken and management’s solution was to just leave it wide open. Cars broken into multiple times and one was actually stolen and abandoned somewhere in Brooklyn.

    Front door is not at all secure, and often left wide open by residents and moving companies, despite key fob system.

    In the 2.5 years I lived there someone was often stuck in the elevator and management did nothing to actually fix the issues, despite constant complaints from residents.

    Astronomical heating bills in the cold months that no one warns you about before you sign a lease.
    Advice to owner:
    Repair the elevator and garage door. Put a better security system in place at the front door. New package and mail room system.
