    Large but Mediocre
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Renovated old building with central air (amazing!!). Exposed brick so you can be an iconic Brooklyn bitch. Quiet building and there’s roof access. Nice man cooks jerk chicken on the sidewalk by the building
    Cons:
    The woman begging for money every time I leave the building… or maybe the landlord not coming to fix water bubbles in my ceiling or fire alarms that broke and we’re going off for 5 days straight in 15ft ceilings. Can’t decide
    Advice to owner:
    Pay attention to the phone calls and get a more attentive super!!

    Good place but not amazing either
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice size John the neighbor sells jerk chicken right outside Usable laundry room Central air is great Nice city view Lots of light especially on top floor Trains close by
    Cons:
    A lot of roof leaking during the crazy rain storms There is not a ton to do in the area The grocery stores are expensive Awkward kitchen space The windows facing Manhattan get very windy and cold. I had literal ice in my windows all winter Management could be more responsive Raising rent
    Advice to owner:
    Put more maintenance into the actual building. The roof and the windows and things like that
    Over 2 years ago
    Honestly kind of indifferent
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Renovated - Price - Roof access - John making jerk chicken on the sidewalk
    Cons:
    - Super long and narrow apartment, making wifi an issue - small rooms - no utilities included, even hot water
    Over 2 years ago
    not the best
    Former Tenant
    Pros:

    Cons:
    shoddy construction, inconvenient neighborhood, landlords the absolute worst, front door didn’t lock for months, bad washer dryer
    Advice to owner:
    do better

    Overpriced and Unprofessional Managment
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious Living Room and Bathroom Exposed Brick Close to the 3/4 trains
    Cons:
    Drug Addicts near door Horrible Communication w/Management In Building Laundry doesn’t work properly Small Closets and Bedrooms Heating isn’t good Packages are always lost No consistent handyman Roaches in Summer No Roof Access No routine maintenance
    Advice to owner:
    Listen to your tenants

    Shitty management company
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Neighbors were nice and looked out for each other during covid
    Cons:
    Management will lie to you countless times. Offer you specific amenities and never deliver. They advertise the apartment as having a “roof deck” but onxe you move in they give you a hard time about using the roof and throw away peoples personal items from up there. The ppl that clean the building are great but management had been informed about the washing machines not working and hordes of flies in the basement and they never adequately resolve it
    Advice to owner:
    Your tenants would stay longer and complain less if you got your shit together. There’s so much turnover in the office staff no one ever responds about complaints or issues
