    Review Summary for 286 Eastern Parkway
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    286 Eastern Parkway offers a convenient location with easy access to multiple subway lines and friendly neighbors, contributing to a positive community feel. The building features an elevator and generally good heating and water pressure. However, maintenance issues persist, including inconsistent garbage management, an ongoing rat infestation near the garden and garbage areas, and a lack of proper lobby lighting and security cameras. Residents note the absence of laundry facilities and bicycle storage as drawbacks. Despite some responsiveness from management, concerns remain about upkeep, pest control, and communication transparency, impacting the building’s overall appeal.
