Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

The building offers modern amenities, in-unit laundry, rooftop access, and a convenient location near transit and Prospect Park. Residents appreciate the helpful super and some feel the building is generally clean and safe. However, management receives widespread criticism for poor responsiveness, aggressive communication, inconsistent maintenance, and frequent rent increases with added fees.
