Recent reviews of 254 Menahan Street praise its responsive and responsible landlord, modern kitchens, spacious units, and added amenities like basement storage and laundry facilities. The building offers a quiet atmosphere with friendly neighbors and strong water pressure. Its character-filled, older construction appeals to many, although some mention noise from nearby trains and traffic.
