Great Building to live in, but with poor management
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Updated appliances, kept clean, conveniently located within Williamsburg, spacious units, lovely neighbors

Great neighbors, extremely poor management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Neighbors are great in entire building, small cable gym in basement, roof top access
Cons:
Dealers on the corner and plenty of junkie foot traffic, management under Naftali ignores all issues unless you remind them multiple times a day, and even then most things do not get solved and are only provided a band aid solution. Beware of this property owner, the only thing that would keep me here is the community in the building
