Reviews

Former tenant·5 minutes ago

Clean, modern fixtures, terrible insulation and super high heat bills, broken laundry machine

Pros

tasteful and aesthetically pleasing apartment fixtures, hallways are pretty clean, HVAC AC and Heat, good location, roof access

Cons

windows are terribly insulated so heat bill is extremely high, washing machine does not clean, dryer does not dry, management previously unresponsive to requests but have improved greatly, thin walls/ceiling + loud/disrespectful neighbors (constant banging on ceiling and being woken up to by loud music)

Former tenant·9 months ago

Responsive but frustrating landlord

Pros

Maintenance tickets are generally responded to promptly. The view from the roof is spectacular. The hallways get cleaned about once a month.

Cons

The company is family run and let's just say I don't think this is their calling. They need things explained to them multiple times in multiple ways and make a lot of basic errors (when they bother to respond). The roof is completely falling apart and the company is in no rush to replace any of the decaying furniture despite multiple requests and it being a selling point of the building. The furniture in the basement is a joke (1 machine for all units plus physical therapy business on ground floor).
