1254 Union Street

Pros

Loved living here for four years. Near all of the trains, had a clean, quiet apartment.

Cons

Sometimes difficult to pick up packages

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Repairs shouldn't take months

Pros

Neighbors are kind, unit is pretty large for the city

Cons

Where to begin? Roaches throughout, even when exterminators come, rats outside, and absolutely nothing gets fixed properly. I feel bad for the super because he's very kind, but clearly in over his head. The building is crumbling both outside and in.

Renter Q&A

Is the landlord sending exterminators? What kind of cockroaches? All on floors?

Over 1 year ago

The landlord is supposed to exterminate once a month but I haven’t seen an exterminator in the building in almost 5 years. There are both German and American cockroaches - the problem is worse on the lower floors.
