Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Decent prewar good location

Pros

Wooden floors, nice super, good location

Cons

Old appliances, sometimes neighbors smoked

Former tenant·4 days ago

Good building if you're not home a lot

Pros

The building and the unit I lived in were both quite nice if small.

Cons

Constant noise. There is a fire station a few blocks away. Fire trucks would almost always turn and travel down this street past the building with their siren on. Being street facing and on the 3rd floor it was a nightmare.
