Love it here
Pros
- Spacious layouts (depending on what you choose) - Great neighborhood and close to Prospect Park! So nice to walk around this area of Brooklyn and 5 min walk to fort Greene / park slope / Clinton hill - Better sound proofing (concrete floor/ceilings) - Nice amenities (direct Chelsea piers access is great and at a discount) - Staff is really kind and helpful - subway access is great, can basically get to every colored subway line easily - Trash management is great
Cons
- dog noise is a common complaint and I’m in west tower. Tbh it can be annoying sometimes but I normally just tune it out. I’ve dealt with worse apartment noise in NYC and its worth it for the pros - water pressure could be better in the showers but it’s doable
Good building, bad maintenance, horrible security
Pros
Amenities, overall build of apartments, location
Cons
Inconsistent water (both temperature and pressure), poor management. Ongoing water issues. AC constantly breaks, and the apartments run HOT (given amount of light) Multiple apartments also broken into - front desk staff actively let in people into apartments who were not listed as having access. Management provided no remedy or clear explanation of how break ins happened.
Advice to the owners
Resolve recurring maintenance issues. Improve security
