    Worst Apartment I've Ever Lived In + Nightmare Management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    there is nothing to like about this building.
    Cons:
    When we moved in, they had gutted the place. Nothing was like when we viewed it. They had removed dry wall, left holes in the floor boards and removed the doors. It was as if they had paid cheap renovators who never finished the job. What's worse is that when we contacted the management about the issue, they said that since our stuff was inside, we had "moved in". A few weeks into living there water began leaking through the ceiling and inside a lighting fixture. It took a 311 inspection for them to fix it.
