    Review Summary for 1710 Newkirk Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 1710 Newkirk Avenue highlight its convenient location near the subway and local amenities, spacious apartments with good natural lighting, and rent-stabilized options appealing to budget-conscious renters. Quiet neighbors and strong water pressure are noted positives. However, consistent maintenance issues such as unreliable heating systems, occasional elevator outages, and building draftiness affect comfort, alongside concerns about outdated kitchen facilities and hallway upkeep. Security worries due to squatters and package theft have been mentioned, along with inconsistent landlord responsiveness. Improvements in building insulation, entrance security, and more accessible management would enhance the living experience. Overall, it offers good value but with notable drawbacks.

    Not bad not fantastic, does the job
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Elevator (breaks down occasionally)
    Location - very close to BQ
    Good price for space
    Wonderful view
    Cons:
    Heating is my biggest complaint - the building is very drafty and central heating unit feels not so efficient, makes gas bill quite high in the winter
    Super / landlord not very accessible
    Maybe some squatters on the 1st floor
    Advice to owner:
    Look into fixing the insulation!

    Avoid if you Can
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Close to the Subways, walking distance to Cartelyou
    Cons:
    No Super
    Heat is expensive and barely works
    Drug Addicts squat in the building. They yell for extended periods of time and at random hours. Owner does nothing and won't even acknowledge the problem
    Any and all packages will be stolen if you do not immediately pick them up
    Advice to owner:
    Kick out the squatters and fix the locks on the front door
