    Review Summary for 594 Driggs Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenants of 594 Driggs Avenue appreciate its prime Brooklyn location, spacious apartments with ample natural light, and decent water pressure. Good neighbor relations and affordable pricing add to its appeal. However, many highlight the building's age, noting outdated appliances, limited amenities, and cleanliness issues in common areas like stairwells and hallways. Safety concerns arise from unsecured front doors and malfunctioning buzzers. Management responsiveness is often criticized as slow or inadequate, with some reporting disruptive construction and pest issues. While renters value the convenience and space, improvements in maintenance, security, and building upkeep are frequently recommended.

    Cool location, but def an old building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Perfect location, lots of windows, tons of space
    Cons:
    Old appliances, stairwell and entryway need more frequent cleaning, door could be more secure. Typical issues with any other 100+ year old building, but you sign up for that going in
