Review Summary for 1360 Ocean Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 1360 Ocean Avenue highlight a building with responsive management and effective garbage removal, alongside good water pressure and heating in many units. Tenants appreciate the friendly neighbors and quiet environment. However, common concerns include inconsistent cleanliness—especially elevators and basement laundry areas—ongoing pest issues, and unresolved water damage and mold problems in top-floor apartments. The building's ownership and rent stabilization status cause confusion and dissatisfaction, particularly related to lease agreements and rent practices. Some complaints about disruptive neighbors and maintenance delays suggest that while the building has potential, improvements in upkeep and clearer communication would enhance renters' overall experience.

So far so good
Former Tenant
Pros:
Water is good, Heating is proper, Garbage is taken out on time, Washing Machine on building
Cons:
The elevator could be a little bit cleaner.
From time to time, there is water on the floor in the basement where the washing machines are due to rain.

Nice enough building with caveats
Former Tenant
Pros:
Super's nice, mostly responsive if you bug him, rent is cheap depending on the apartment, they're trying to fix it up. It's a solid old prewar. High ceilings. When they renovate the apartments they do a good job.
Cons:
Watch out for the lease you're signing. I got what I thought was a rent-stabilized lease but my apartment is actually owned by a condo association run by the management, so I'm a sublettor. The rapacious broker is actually part of the management and charged me a fee to MOVE WITHIN THE BUILDING.
This building allows for section 8. I'm okay with that except for the hoarder on the third floor who leaves his door open in the summer and stinks the whole floor up. There's at least one other fellow like that on the 5th floor. Smelly as hell. And the laundry in the basement gets a fly infestation every summer.
Advice to owner:
More oversight of these hoarders please. We had to beg and needle and demand to get that guy on 3 cleaned up.
