Reviews

Former tenant·1 month ago

Decent Building to Move into

Pros

Management was responsive.

Cons

People smoke in building hallways.

Former tenant·6 months ago

Old but livable

Pros

Rent stabilized, laundry in unit, accidental heated coat closet due to pipe placements

Cons

I don’t mind the noise but others might. During the summer there’s music playing late into the night so keep that in mind. No garbage shoot.
