Review Summary for 505 Union Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 505 Union Avenue praise its excellent cleanliness, well-managed garbage disposal, and effective pest control. Tenants highlight responsive and attentive management, especially maintenance and building staff. The building offers quiet, respectful neighbors and well-maintained interiors with features like in-unit laundry and sound-blocking windows. However, some units near the parking garage experience significant noise from garage doors and elevator operations, which may impact livability. Water pressure is generally good but could improve.

Best building ever!
Former Tenant
Pros:
I loved living here. Maintenance requests were quick and Mendy was always on top of building management. There are no bugs/mice, the building is quiet, packages are never stolen.
Cons:
Water pressure isn't great, living right above the parking garage (3rd floor) could get loud.
