Review Summary for 119-20 Union Tpke
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 119-20 Union Turnpike highlight the building's convenient location near Forest Hills and quality local schools as major pluses. Tenants appreciate the natural light, decent apartment finishes, and the efforts of the building's super, who is generally seen as hardworking but overwhelmed managing multiple buildings. However, management is commonly criticized for slow or poor responsiveness and inadequate communication. Cleanliness and garbage management in common areas are frequently noted as issues, with pest problems like roaches occurring in some units. Noise levels and neighbor behavior are mixed, with concerns about inconsiderate tenants. Amenities are minimal, with no parking or storage options.

Not What It Used To Be
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is convenient - walking distance to Forest Hills and Austin Street. Zoned schools are above average. Neighbors who have been here 10+ years are friendly.
Cons:
The building has one super who is unable to sufficiently address all apartment concerns in a timely manner. He does what he can but a property this large needs more than one super. Maintenance requests take 30-60+ days to be addressed or resolved, it’s ridiculous. You can’t get in contact with management - their communication is HORRIBLE and nonexistent. There’s lead in the doors/property - management is extremely cheap and won’t fix HPD violations. Inconsiderate neighbors allowing their children to make noise after 11:00pm, tenants smoking in the hallways. Neighbors throwing garbage outside of trash room and leaving open bags of trash on steps.
The property has changed/declined within the past 18 months due to new tenants.

Advice to owner:
Perkins can’t maintain all apartments alone he needs help. Address residents concerns and maintenance requests shouldn’t take over a week to address/fix. Vet tenants better as they’re making living miserable for others. Lastly, there needs to be better communication with management and tenants.
