While some appreciate the spacious units and accessible location, concerns revolve around maintenance issues like water leaks, pests, and slow responsiveness from management.

Should be Demolished!

Pros

Nothing really. I guess the location was okay. But the illegal cellar rooms make it difficult to enjoy anything.

Cons

Filthy, cheap, not worth the going rent price

Advice to the owners

Demolish this building please!!

good apt for price but needs work

Pros

great sunlight - very spacious- private outdoor space

Cons

Buzzer doesn't work and they havent fixed it for 3 years - you need to be home to recieve packaged or else they get stolen. terrible communication between maintenance and management. wood floors aren't sealed. Foundation is terrible. Our floors split from walls and we had mice (it's been sealed since)
