Reviews

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

2037 1ST AVENUE

Pros

The rent is very cheap and the units themselves are very big.

Cons

There is a lot of drug activity that happens outside of the building and there are a lot of people that do not live in the building that hang around in the doorway of the building and oftentimes catcall women and drink and use drugs. The neighbors can oftentimes be loud and there is a confirmed hoarder on the 2nd floor.

You get what you pay for

Pros

Rent is great for a 3bed 1.5 bath.

Cons

Building is dirty and looks it could do with a powerwash. Noise levels are sky-high especially if your room faces the street. You can hear conversations from street-level.
