Review Summary for 210 Livingston St. Owner LLC
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenants of buildings managed by 210 LIVINGSTON ST. OWNER LLC commonly praise the staff's friendliness, attentiveness, and responsiveness, contributing to a generally positive living experience. The buildings, especially 45 Hoyt Street, offer great locations, convenient transit access, and appealing amenities including modern appliances and helpful concierge services. However, management faces criticism for inadequate pest control, inconsistent enforcement of no-smoking policies, and challenges in addressing tenant disturbances and security concerns. Noise from neighbors and thin walls is frequently mentioned, as well as occasional maintenance issues like elevator wait times and faulty gym AC. Overall, while management strives to maintain a pleasant environment, improvements in tenant screening and building upkeep are recommended.

Nice but some big problems.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Lovely apartment design, with huge windows and hidden HVAC units. Convenient subway access, grocery store across the street. Most of the staff are kind and helpful.
Cons:
Some major security/safety concerns with tenants themselves as well as activity on Hoyt Street. There is a lot of questionable traffic in and out of the building. Needs to pay for real security in the lobby, but building management is too cheap to even properly staff the package room so the doormen can focus on the lobby doors. A pervasive problem with smoking. Shared ventilation means that you smell and hear everything from your neighbors. Windows are filthy and have never been cleaned. There aren't enough elevators for a 26 story building, and one or two always seem to be down. Water system is incredibly faulty and goes down every few months.

There are many other comparably priced buildings in the neighborhood with properly staffed lobbies, better property upkeep, and significantly nicer amenities.
Advice to owner:
Invest in more lobby staff to keep this building safer, instead of just creating bandaids that put the burden on tenants.

Great place and friendly staff, but some changes are needed
Former Tenant
Pros:
Super convenient to the subways and transit. The doormen, porters and staff are all very nice and attentive
Cons:
The building has some residents that continue to cause issues, like smoking inside, and "guests" of some apartments tend to loiter in the lobby which can be annoying

Has a ton of potential, requires some updates and policy changes
Former Tenant
Pros:
Staff here is amazing. Everyone from the front desk to maintenance is super friendly. The building itself is really nice and decently maintained.
Cons:
Crackheads EVERYWHERE. Low income housing comes with drug dealers (who have been raided), arrests, crack heads roaming stairways and halls
Advice to owner:
Figure out how you can get rid of those who bring the quality of life down for everyone else

pros and cons
Former Tenant
Pros:
The front desk staff are excellent. The apartment unit itself is spacious. Washer/dryer and dishwasher in unit. There is a lot of common space.
Cons:
Not effective at responding to complaints about roaches. The a/c in the gym is always broken in the summer. This is particular to my unit, but the neighbors are extremely loud, smoke indoors, and it seems nothing can be done about it.
Advice to owner:
Fix the gym AC, do more regular pest prevention.

Great Building Overall
Former Tenant
Pros:
1. The building uses an app that handles service requests, package alerts, and other internal communication.
2. The people who work in the building are incredibly nice and helpful. Some of the best professionals in the city.
3. The building management is very responsive and even has an office on the second floor where someone is usually available if needed.
4. It always feels comfortable and safe coming back home to the building.
Cons:
1. Sometimes the neighbors can be loud and though the building management tries to get them to be quiet, it's not always successful.
2. The A/C in gym and other communal areas sometimes go out for extended periods of time.

Solid luxury building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Lot of amenities. Gym, rooftop, doorman, w/d in unit. Maintenance. Lounge. Light hardwood floors are beautiful. Neighborhood is within minutes of Trader Joe’s, target and 15 minutes from Brooklyn bridge (west) and prospect park (east). Friendly doormen and maintenance staff. Water, heat, power and internet work well.
Cons:
Takes forever to get an elevator but due to COVID. Marijuana smells from neighbors come through vents even though it’s strictly no smoking. W/d and dishwasher break down frequently but fixed easily by maintenance. Sometimes can hear neighbors upstairs.
Advice to owner:
Keep up the good work!
