    Declining rapidly under this management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I liked the high ceilings and spacious rooms.
    Cons:
    The maintenance of the building has only gotten worse with the latest management. They are unresponsive, do not pay the super (supers don't stay, so repairs are infrequent and unreliable), and only take care of the place under threat of a lawsuit.
    Advice to owner:
    Take care of the place and the loyal tenants; stop neglecting them!

    Flatbush Zone Flush
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good shopping location
    Cons:
    Dirty, unkempt , poor
    Advice to owner:
    Respond to tenants complaints regarding the super. He is lazy and rude. Respond to repair requests promptly

    Hot Water and Noise
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This building has a large lobby for receiving packages and has an elevator which is convenient.
    Cons:
    The hot water is not hot consistently. Many calls to 311 and complaints to management. Management has told me I’m the only one complaining but after getting this app that has been proven to be a lie. You can hear the noise from neighboring units very easily, building can be quite loud. There was an attempted rape in the building recently
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the hot water

    Dirty and loud
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Big apartments lots of light
    Cons:
    the management company specializes in affordable housing. which is all you need to know. even if you pay regular rent you live like you don’t. The super doesn’t clean the sidewalk and uses the bit of green area as a parking spot. Packages are being stolen from the lobby. The people in the building next door gather on the street, play loud music for 8 hours straight and piss on the sidewalk. Nothing is being fixed just painted over. i had Bedbugs 4 times in the 5 years i’ve lived there.
    Advice to owner:
    Do better all around.
