    Beware of noise levels if your apartment windows face Bedford ave
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice and responsive management, parking lot, elevator
    Cons:
    In summer 2020, the restaurant across from the building on Bedford ave began playing VERY loud music every single day as part of their pandemic outdoor dining. If your windows face the street and you work from home, the music levels are a nightmare: absolutely not conducive to thinking straight or taking calls. The weekend days are the worst—very loud, thumping music from noon until 10 pm. Many afternoons and evenings too when the weather warms up. It feels like you’re living in a nightclub, and will fray on your sanity. (Many noise complaints were filed, building management attempted to speak with the restaurant. Nothing helped.) The building is lovely and well managed. But if your windows face Bedford ave, then during outdoor dining, the location is basically unlivable if you want any semblance of sustained quiet.
    Advice to owner:
    Find a way to mitigate the music volume and frequency from the restaurant across the street. Outdoor dining is here to stay, and that is great! But if this level of music continues the apartments facing Bedford Avenue will become unrentable and unsellable.

    Great place in BedStuy
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice people. Good community in the building. There used to be a lot of problems, but they seem to have gotten their act together and now it’s gotten nice. They’re about to do a major renovation to make a roof deck and other stuff.
    Cons:
    Elevator sometimes is slow.
    Advice to owner:
    Keep doing what you’re doing.

    Hope you like pests!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Almost all of the he unit have outdoor space. Great location in the heart of Bed-Stuy.
    Cons:
    This building has a serious roach problem. Not small roaches either. Large, outdoor, flying roaches can be found throughout the building. The elevator is brooklyn at least a few times a month. There have been several break-ins in 2020 where packages were stolen. The washers malfunction at least once a month. The basement (where the laundry room is located) floods when there's a heavy rain. You can hear everything from the units around you. The super can be non-responsive, but there's also a lot that needs to be fixed in the building so maybe he's just busy. There have been multiple instances where past of the building have fallen off and on to the sidewalk.
    Advice to owner:
    This building needs a lot of work.

    The experience depends on which floor you are located
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Laundry in the building, garbage availability and storage, and location
    Cons:
    Thin walls, water bugs (on the first floor and basement area), small unit (studio), elevator issues (constantly broke down)
    Advice to owner:
    Pay someone to treat the water bugs to rid them from the building.
