    Management ok, residents horrendous
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Many of the units are completely renovated, rent-controlled, responsive management, maintenance does well to try to maintain cleanliness and order in the building
    Cons:
    Residents are often very loud and generally disrespectful especially with regards to trash which is often left at the door to trash area or dropped from windows into trash area breaking bags, trash situation has created a serious pest issue, management does not have respect or control of the behavior in the building so nothing changes
    Advice to owner:
    Start fining the disrespectful behavior
