    Stay Away From This Building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Spacious apartment
    Cons:
    - Always dirty
    - mice and roaches running around the apartment
    - rats running around in the backyard because neighbours throw their trash out the window and there isn't a porter who cleans or throw out trash often
    - management and the super is unresponsive to repair requests
    - the building is always dirty
    - there are kids most times smoking weed in the stairway blocking you from walking the stairs
    - Anyone can open the front door by pulling the building door which almost everyone seems to know as they enter the building
    - The mailboxes are unlabeled and some are damaged
    - Packages are usually stolen at a high rate
    Advice to owner:
    Sell the building, this isn't your calling.
