Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Dirty, Poorly Managed

Pros

Good location, fine pricing, rent stabilized if you can find it, noise isn't bad, and good neighbors live here

Cons

Terrible management. Apartment front door has not locked in 11 months. Super takes weeks to fix anything (if he remembers or answers your calls). Trash piles up in front of the building and spills out because they don't change out the bags. Rats scurry in front of your feet as you walk in the door. The heat is stingy during the mild winter days.

Great location Back apts are nice and quiet Large sized rooms and well laid out Water pressure is great Decent lighting Winter heat isn’t hot box levels of overheated

Cons

Poor maintenance work in general upkeep Packages are constantly stolen from the lobby Management team is basically impossible to get a hold of If we got a new super then I surely wasn’t notified and/or ever met him
