Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 1648 Norman Street, Queens reveal a building with renovated units featuring central air and reliable heating. Laundry facilities are consistently functional, and water pressure is good. However, tenants frequently express dissatisfaction with management’s slow responsiveness and poor garbage and pest control. Issues such as persistent cockroaches, occasional sewage leaks, and broken door locks compromise safety and comfort. Noise insulation is inadequate, leading to disturbances from neighbors. Despite some tenants appreciating the affordable price and friendly neighbors, poor communication, security concerns, and maintenance problems deter many from recommending the building. Improvements in management responsiveness and building upkeep are strongly advised.

Reviews

Former tenant·24 minutes ago

Worst management so far

Pros

I liked my neighbors for the most part, but some neighbors sadly had a lot of fights that could be overheard

Cons

Sewage leak and pipes burst in the laundry room for days. It was disgusting, dangerous, and, of course, unchecked. They did not send a plumber for three days, so sewage could be smelled throughout the building.

Advice to the owners

Care about your tenants you greedy slumlords

Former tenant·Over 4 years ago

cheap, but you get what you pay for

Pros

It's genuinely not bad. Laundry in building has always worked. Heating and cooling always works.

Cons

You hear everything from all the neighbors, there's no sound insulation. Pest management used to be bad but now has been handled. Occasional roaches. No rats (anymore). The front door handle regularly breaks.
