Things Break Often, Management Greedy
Former Tenant
Pros:
It's a good location. Doormen are nice.
Cons:
The building is poorly maintained. They will raise your rent beyond the market price. They will be slow to fix things and they will fix things badly.
Advice to owner:
Clean the walls in the lobby

Needs some intervention
Former Tenant
Pros:
Renovated apartments in great location
Cons:
Rodents
Slow response time re: repairs
Renovations are flawed to rodents, broken HVAC, buckling floors.
Advice to owner:
Do something about rodents. Lobby needs fixing. Maintenance staff nice but need actual professionals for repairs. Renovations = lipstick on a pig l
