Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 1538 New York Avenue reveal a mix of positives and significant concerns. Tenants appreciate the building’s modern amenities such as a gym, elevator, in-building laundry, and proximity to transit and stores. Heating and water pressure are generally reliable, and some praise owner responsiveness. However, major issues persist: poor garbage management, cleanliness problems, and pest presence. Noise levels and neighbor behavior often detract from comfort, with reports of loitering and disturbances. Management responsiveness varies with complaints about slow or inadequate handling of maintenance and security problems. Parking availability is a plus but considered costly. Improvements in building upkeep and tenant screening are strongly advised.

The sidewalk in front of the building is a repository for dog poop.

Pros

Modern clean and fine inside.

Cons

Trash is always present in front of the building Very UNSANITARY dog poop issue. Advise filling open areas in sidewalk with concrete

Advice to the owners

See above. This will cause the lease to be not renewed and I will tell everyone I know to not rent there until this is rectified. It is a nasty situation.
