    Review Summary for 1745 East 12 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant feedback for 1745 East 12 Street reveals a building with spacious units and convenient amenities like a basement laundry, elevator, and garage. However, many highlight serious management and maintenance issues, including poor cleanliness, unreliable heating, pest infestations, and unsafe garage conditions due to a dysfunctional security system. Residents report a problematic superintendent with inappropriate behavior and substance abuse concerns, coupled with unresponsiveness from ownership. Noise levels are generally rated as quiet, and neighbors are mostly seen as friendly. Overall, renters caution about ongoing neglect and strongly advise management to improve maintenance, security, and professionalism to restore living quality.

    Decent Building but Creepy Super
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The units are large and pretty good for noise control
    Cons:
    The super was very creepy towards me (a woman in my twenties), and said some inappropriate things to me over text. Also, the bathtub consistently drained extremely slowly despite trying many methods to fix it. There was a roach problem when I first moved in but it cleared up within a few months with exterminator visits.
