Review Summary for 295 Clinton Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 295 Clinton Avenue emphasize the building’s beautiful pre-war architecture, spacious apartments, and desirable Clinton Hill location near public transit. Tenants appreciate features like high ceilings, elevators, and laundry facilities. Neighbor relations and noise levels vary, generally leaning positive. However, several renters report persistent issues with unresponsive management, particularly regarding maintenance delays, heating problems, and pest control. Garbage management and cleanliness have been flagged as inconsistent, with calls for more janitorial support in this large building. Package theft and lack of bike storage are noted concerns. Despite its charm, renters advise more timely upkeep and improved landlord responsiveness to enhance living conditions.

Beautiful building, unresponsive corporate landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building is a palatial pre-war building on a beautiful tree-lined Clinton Hill block, steps from the G train. Apartment is large!
Cons:
From move-in onward, it was a chore to get management to attend to standard maintenance items--everything from lead testing chipping paint (for kid residents) to the buzzer system not working to the heating not working properly—the list goes on.
We've lived in Brooklyn prewar buildings since the 2000s and get that they require fairly regular and sometimes considerable upkeep; it's not that repairs were needed at this unit, it's the sluggish and poor response of the building and its management that disappointed us.

Advice to owner:
a huge, beautiful historic building requires far more maintenance than the one live-in repair person can provide or sub-contract; management office staff should understand that their job is respond to maintenance requests from tenants rather than ignore them

295 Clinton Avenue review
Former Tenant
Pros:
You should stay away, there is not a pro. Best I can give is there’s a downstairs laundry area but you will run into roaches every time.
Cons:
Does not do repairs in time. Needed a replacement for the dishwasher that was not installed for over a year. For 2 and a half years the electrical system for letting people into your apartment from downstairs was broken. Had to physically go down each time to let someone in which was extremely hard for my older family members. Although the apartment knew this they selectively chose some people to get the new electrical system earlier than others. Our apartment didn’t get fixed for 2 and a half years. Roaches and pests not addressed in a timely fashion. No where near worth the value of the apartment. Stay away!
Advice to owner:
Respond to requests to fix the apartment or address
pests in a timely fashion or give people months off
rent. In short learn to do your job!
