Great space with poor handling
Pros
Decent size living rooms (communal space), the bedrooms are a good size for an office and/or a podcast, when you actually get heat during the winter, you get heat throughout the winter, the backyard and laundry room is open to everyone
Cons
The super is lazy and takes forever to get stuff done. When you get help with an issue, it’s half done and left with a mark that causes future issues instead of finishing the job. Provides promises of handling issues and almost never get them done appropriately, the laundry room was position in the wrong space for optimal use. The communal space that leads to the backyard is used as a junk room instead of a laundromat for the building. The small room that’s used as a laundry room should be more utilized
Advice to the owners
Make sure the building is clear from bugs and pests on a routine basis
It had potential
Pros
The units in these apartments are actually huge, I’ve lived in a two bedroom and three bedroom unit in here- both duplexes with two bathrooms, plenty of closets. Pretty good grocery store attached to one of the buildings which is really convenient. Lots of public transportation close by.
Cons
There are a lot of people living here that don’t care about the building or their neighbors-they smoke and play loud music in the hallways at all hours of the day and night. People don’t put trash properly in the chute and pile it in the hallway. Security here is useless even though they built a security station in every building a couple years ago. Very noisy. Roaches and mice.
Advice to the owners
Actually be more involved in the upkeep and reputation of these buildings.
