    Plz respond to the tenants
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The neighbors in the building are very nice,
    Cons:
    Management never responds to concerns. Dog poop all over the outside sidewalks.
    Advice to owner:
    Actually pick up/respond to tenants needs.

    Decent living area
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    There’s a lot of space that’s affordable
    Cons:
    There’s mice and bugs everywhere. No matter how clean you are the mice will find a way inside. The building manager doesn’t care though.
    Advice to owner:
    Get a real exterminator

    Horrible management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    There are no pros.
    Cons:
    Management is lacking morals. I had to fight to get my security back when i moved out. After 4 months I finally received it. Alison belfer in the office is highly incompetent. Apartments are not worth what they charge for rent. Roaches, mice, mold and low heat is what u can expect. Thankfully i moved out of there and i am happier now.
    Advice to owner:
    Clean up your act. Fix your shitty apartments.
