    Completely Unreachable Management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Old and beautiful
    Cons:
    Management/maintenance are completely unreachable. Mice, roaches, leaking radiators, floor tiles coming up, broken stove, no heat, safety hazard. Management refuses to spend any money or time doing necessary checks to keep tenants safe.
    Advice to owner:
    Take responsibility for this property and keep people safe. Building inspections URGENTLY needed. Tenants are without HEAT in middle of winter.
