Reviews

Solid apartment building

Pros

Neighbors are friendly, live-in super is very nice, great location close to everything, great light in the units.

Cons

Really loud if youre street facing. The radiators can get really hot in the winter. Main issue is the lack of electricity for the building i.e the power goes out constantly if you run too many appliances at once. It becomes a huge annoyance in the summer.

Advice to the owners

Update the electrical capacity in the building, do something about the ugly pipes/layers of silver paint that flake off of them.
