HAZARDOUS LIVING CONDITIONS
Former Tenant
Pros:
Excellent location, very kind and helpful live-in super
Cons:
1. Building had very extreme fire (2 deaths) last year and little to nothing was done to accommodate / assist tenants at the time or after - for ex., 1 day after fire we were lied to and told that it was completely safe to return (zero inspections had been done) and were still forced to pay rent, over 1 year later we still do not have working gas in the building, zero fire alarms went off during the fire and over 1 year later we still have not received confirmation that the fire alarms are now working, horrendous smoke smell that will not go away, constant construction
2. Not safe - ongoing construction means strangers coming in the building constantly, front door is wide open all day every day, packages stolen all the time, loud noises at all hours, and ongoing hazards from the fire that are just not being dealt with (see above)
3. Careless owner - management company is somewhat helpful in that at least they respond to our emails, however owner lies / does nothing to help fix anything wrong in the building / is completely unresponsive to complaints or requests - only cares about getting his money and not the safety of his tenants
4. Horrible pest infestation and NOTHING has been done about it - mice everywhere (halls, garbage shoot, apartments), roaches everywhere (I kill multiple roaches per week at this point) - the "exterminator" that the building provided did absolutely nothing and we had to hire our own which has been the only thing to help with even a slight improvement
5. smoking inside the building - listings will advertise that there is "central AC" however you cannot use this AC because whenever you turn it on, horrible cigarette smoke & smells come through the vents because other tenants are smoking in their apartment with no repercussions (have reported this to Owner multiple times - nothing being done)
6. Other advertised amenities / required necessities do not work - i.e. "in building laundry" always broken, "central AC" does not work, heater makes outlandishly loud noises WHEN it is even working (which is not all the time), had multiple weeks with no hot water

I could go on and on about the cons of this building. DO NOT be fooled by the great location and somewhat cheap rent - it is not worth it.
Advice to owner:
Please have some consideration for your tenants who have stood by this building and paid rent and tried to be helpful through a tragic event and very difficult time. Your lack of concern or caring is unbelievably upsetting and quite frankly extremely dangerous.

FIRE HAZARD - DO NOT RENT
Former Tenant
Pros:
nothing - safety hazard
Cons:
I am begging that no one rent in this building!!! It is a major safety hazard. In May 2023 there was a devastating fire with casualties in the building and no fire alarms went off. The next day the building management simply told us it was "safe to return and most tenants went back to their apartments" despite the fact that the city had vacate orders all over the doors - this place is a major major health and safety hazard!! There is also a major roach and mice issue that management does not care about.

104 Sullivan st
Former Tenant
Pros:
Sunlight
Unit had central air
Recently renovated at move in
Cons:
Uncontrolled roach infestation in one apartment that the landlord did nothing to mitigate. Fire in one apartment caused us to vacate. Actively renting out apartments after the fire and not informing new tenants about smoke damage / no working gas still. Do not sign a lease here.
Advice to owner:
Stop pretending this building is even somewhat livable post fire until it is fully renovated. Check in on tenants - one apartment should not be the cause of extremely unhealthy conditions.

BEWARE if you plan to move here
Former Tenant
Pros:
The unit itself is great - newly renovated and lots of light!
Cons:
- Roaches (like a lot of them - I killed 15 in one night)
- Mice
- Gnats
- Neighbors have bed bugs
- Water leaks that have resulted in mold
- No hot water in the morning
Advice to owner:
Invest in true help for the pest issues - the exterminator just sprays for 1 second in 1 area just to check the unit off his list.
