Avoid Avoid Avoid

Pros

The kitchen has been recently remodeled and the bathrooms have great water pressure. Washer and dryer are new and convenient.

Cons

Management is horrible. They will ignore you for MONTHS. Dead roaches in the hallway and trash is never managed. The people who manage this building lack intelligence and should consider working somewhere within their skillset - perhaps cleaning the garbage and roaches from the building. UPDATING as of 6/9/25 Somehow this property has declined even further. Rats in the ceilings, roaches in the hallway, and the members of the homeless shelter have taken over the corner, playing music and smoking from early morning until late at night. The downstairs area has constant sewage leaks and the building smells like feces. I wish someone warned me before moving in here - love yourself and go somewhere far away.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

a mostly nice experience

Pros

Beautiful living room, bedrooms. super nice bathrooms. Plenty of light.

Cons

heat went out in late December for a month, we only got $700 refunded. Some pests in apartment. junkies on our stoop most nights, sometimes they make lots of noise at night. frequently we'll see needles down there. the neighborhood is nice besides the exact corner this place is on.

Advice to the owners

the management just recently changed so its hard to say
