Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for Lennard Katz’s buildings reveals a mixed management reputation. While some buildings offer spacious, well-maintained apartments with friendly superintendents and solid cleanliness, others suffer from pest infestations, maintenance delays, and subpar heat and soundproofing. Several tenants report unresponsiveness or dismissive attitudes from management, with issues like unauthorized subletting, security concerns, and inconsistent communication. Noise levels and neighbor behavior vary widely by location. The superintendents generally receive more positive mentions than the owners themselves. Prospective tenants should anticipate a variable living experience and approach with caution regarding maintenance and management support.

Management sucks, super is rude and doesn't know how to manage a building

Pros

Apartments are a really good value for the money. A lot of space and on a nice quiet block close to lots of restaurants.

Cons

The management handles things really poorly. There was a roach infestation a few months ago and it was handled really poorly until everyone in the building started complaining and then it was a mess generally. Elvis, the Super, is really bad and he's rude to people. Overall it wasn't worth it in the end.
