Great amenities, management could improve
Former Tenant
Pros:
Modern and nice decor. Mostly well maintained. The gym and rooftop are nice.
Cons:
Thiefs steal packages from the mailroom all the time and management doesn’t do anything. If something breaks in the common areas, they won’t repair it. Expensive for small apartments
Advice to owner:
Update furniture. Adresse package thefts, trespassing. Respond to tenants’ concerns

Overpriced building, low quality
Former Tenant
Pros:
- new building
- gym
- rooftop
- decent apartments
- gym
- rooftop
- decent apartments
Cons:
- the ONLY elevator in the building is broken often and sometimes it’s down for days at a time. If you live on the higher floors you’re pretty much screwed and need to walk up the stairs.
- walls are paper thin, we could hear our neighbors music blasting on the daily
- fake fancy building - looks nice but everything is low quality
- electric bills $300+ per month year round
- drafty windows, everything is cold in winter and hot in the summer
- no heat or AC in the hallways so in the winter the heat in the apartment escapes out the door and in the summer the hallways smell musky
- packages stolen despite there being a package room
- poor security - sketchy people always get into the building and roam around doing who knows what (ex. One time a man walked around in a orange construction vest checking to see if apartment doors were unlocked)
- expensive parking and the parking lot gate is always left open
- rooftop furniture had cushions on it but 50% are missing, not well maintained, very bare bones
- paying Williamsburg / Manhattan prices for Bushwick

Advice to owner:
Stop being cheap and greedy. If you’re charging a premium, give a premium experience.
