Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Harry Hirsch consistently points to poor management, with numerous complaints about cleanliness, pest infestations, and garbage control. Residents report frequent rodent and cockroach issues, dirty hallways, and insufficient maintenance. Many mention an unresponsive or slow-acting management, particularly criticizing the superintendents for failing to address tenant concerns and enabling disruptive behavior. While some note decent heating and water pressure, noise disturbances and safety concerns are recurrent. Despite a few positive notes on neighborliness in select buildings, the overall sentiment advises significant improvements in property upkeep, pest control, and active, attentive management to enhance tenant experience.

Somewhere to live in your at your worst place one step up from a shelter

Pros

The proximity to public transport Abundance of stores to shop and dine Close to many parks

Cons

Drug dealers allowed to sell drugs in front of the building and only this building daily Hispanic residents (the bad ones) get special treatment and can be as loud obnoxious as they want they can even bully you and super will go above and beyond the protect them. example if you get a break in or assaulted by a fellow resident and they are Hispanic the super will tell police the cameras wasn’t working. They is a gay guy on the 1st floor who does drugs and when he is coming does will scream at people or even try to fight with people even females. If you put a finger on him or respond he will call 911 immediately and lie and say you started it and that your committing a a hate crime and will run the super for the video proof. The super uses him to bully tenants who report them to the city about maintenance issues. I am black woman and a black man lived next to me we could never yell at other tenants or put our trash out the wrong way let alone sell drugs in broad daylight in the lobby The rodent tenant ratio is 20:1 Cockroach tenant ratio is 300:1 and don’t waste your money am exterminator they will come right back Some tenants have 10-12 Pets in a 1 bedroom apartment. If you don’t hear it you will smell it. The drug dealers girlfriend screams profanities once every two weeks in the street at late hours of the night and sometimes even in the building The police come at least once every six weeks due to fights and domestic disputes

Advice to the owners

Micro manage ur super and get once that actually works your paying the guy to ruin your property most of the issues is things that he allows

Management’s Lack of Care

Pros

The heat & water are usually not an issue.

Cons

The pest control needs work, no matter how much I personally clean, I still see atleast 3 roaches in my apt a day. The garbage area in the back is awful, rat infested. And management doesn’t address concerns in a timely manner. Management doesn’t seem to care about tenants. Lots of disruptive music playing, even with the elderly and sick living there.
