Reviews

Former tenant·5 months ago

Great building, great management

Pros

Beautiful kitchen, high-quality renovations, responsive management/super, central A/C and heat

Cons

Share walls with church next door - super loud during Sunday mornings. Only one washer/dryer in the basement and it only takes quarters.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Get ready for Sunday service

Pros

Nice location, lovely layout, kind neighbors, and you kind of have roof access

Cons

The church next door may look dormant but they pray LOUDLY Friday evening, Saturday evening, and Sunday 9am-4pm. The landlord is fine, just lazy and entitled. You have to ask for repairs multiple times before he comes down to Brooklyn. He’s generally nice.
