Reviews

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Extremely high electric bills, poor heating and insulation

Pros

Nice layout, gym, roof, high ceilings

Cons

Management is unresponsive to issues and the rent is far too high given their lack of attentativeness to the issues facing the building. It seems fundamentally poorly designed for heating as well because they claim they need to run the hallway heat on full blast to avoid pipes freezing and bursting in the winter.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Don’t Live Here if You Want Peace and Quiet

Pros

Good fixtures and overall layout is good

Cons

Location is not great: very noisy outside Walls are paper thin and you can hear noise throughout the entire building which has been torture in a studio Multiple neighbors are horribly loud, disrespectful, and selfish. Things get stolen from the hallway including bikes and packages Electric bills are INSANELY high: I paid $270 one month in January even with my air and heat turned off as I was out of town Building management answers calls but has never had solutions to above problems If you’re looking for something peaceful, don’t live here.
