Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

70 Wyckoff Avenue offers spacious loft-style apartments with high ceilings and a strong community vibe, especially appealing for families. The building is well-located near subway access and various restaurants. Management and maintenance teams are often responsive, and heating, pest control, and water pressure are generally reliable. However, issues with cleanliness, garbage management, and noise from nearby recycling trucks persist. Rent increases have been frequent and steep, causing tenant dissatisfaction, alongside transparency and lease renewal concerns under new ownership. Tenants urge management to improve communication, stabilize rents, and enhance building upkeep to foster a better living environment.

Loved my home till I was kicked out

Pros

Amazing neighborhood, building community, and apartment space

Cons

New ownership is not good at notifying residents when changes are made. We were also not allowed to renew our lease. After 4 years of always paying on time and keeping the apartment in top shape we were not allowed to renew our lease. They only told us the landlord did not want to renew us...nothing else. Not covered under good cause eviction due to a refiling of the occupancy report in 2016. Truly loved my life here and am so sad it is coming to an end due to management that does not want to invest in the community already here. Also they promise roof access and maid service but the building is not cleaned on a regular bases and the stairwells lock you inside so you cannot access the roof
