    Could be good, but major security issues
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious for price, friendly and helpful porter and super, good location relative to subway. Decent gym.
    Cons:
    Security - there have recently been assault/robbery inside the building and packages are often stolen. Neighbors let anyone in behind them, and management does not take efforts to better secure the premises.
    Pests - have never seen pests inside the building , but rats run through the garbage out front all the time, running the risk they come in the building.
    Advice to owner:
    Show more interest in building security

    Good but can improve on some things
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Newer building
    No pests
    Free heat
    Management responds within 24 hours on weekdays
    Rooftop lounge
    Close to C, A, and shuttle trains
    Walkable neighborhood
    Private parking garage (limited spaces)
    Package room
    Laundry room
    Bike storage
    Cons:
    Thin walls. Management says it’s a smoke free building but doesn’t do much to enforce it. They send warning emails and tell tenants they have to figure out who the smokers are.
    Management is not available on the weekends - so if you have a weekend maintenance emergency, if a neighbor is throwing a late night party or being loud, goodluck.
    Rude neighbors
    “Interesting” sights on your walk to the subway
    Won’t let you switch apartments within the building unless your lease is up
    Advice to owner:
    Provide more tenant support on the weekends
    Reinforce building rules for the common areas (community room, roof, laundry, gym)
