The buildings are generally clean and well-maintained, situated in desirable neighborhoods near amenities and parks.

Reviews

Former tenant·6 minutes ago

Loved living here

Pros

I've lived in this building for over 5 years and the time has really flown. The location is unbeatable, within walking distance to Prospect Park and the amazing shops and restaurants on Vanderbilt and Franklin Ave. This is a corner building with so much character and generous windows, right above a beloved local restaurant. Our landlord is extremely responsive and mindful of our needs.

Cons

Lots of new construction in the neighborhood.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Good building in nice neighborhood

Pros

- Nice amenities (nest thermostat, new appliances, central air) - Fun safe neighborhood - Landlord is responsive and reasonable and keeps the building in good condition

Cons

- Restaurant downstairs and CrossFit across the street are egregiously loud sometimes. There are some late-night vibrations in the walls that can be annoying - Roach problem (living above a restaurant)
