    Avoid at all costs
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Relatively good community, wonderful tenant association fighting for their neighbors
    Cons:
    SO many roaches and mice

    Mold/mildew painted over by maintenance instead of being cleaned

    Ceilings and walls have cracks/holes exposing insulation

    Slow/non-existent maintenance/owner response time

    Little to no heat in Fall/Winter; banging heaters that are not flushed regularly

    Paint jobs done irregularly/chipping paint throughout the year with no maintenance

    Lack of renovations for long-time tenants, but newly renovated apartments given attention for newer tenants

    Wheelchair elevator inaccessible; key to turn on/off does not work; accessibility elevator malfunctioned very soon after being installed

    Packages consistently stolen

    Parking lot is small, not taken care of in any way and only available to about 5 cars in a 7-story,
    40+ family apartment building
