Former tenant·4 months ago

lovely building, nice neighbors!

Pros

beautiful windows, beautiful floors, great neighborhood, easy walk to the park

Cons

Maintenance is a little slow & often just puts band-aids on issues rather than actually fixing things. Heat will sometimes come on when it’s 60 degrees out but not when it’s 20 degrees out.
