    Just off the Main drag
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building is kept quite clean. 4th & 5th floors have trash rooms that get emptied weekly. The roof is accessible (not furnished)
    Cons:
    It’s a walk up.
    The building is a condo so if you are renting you’re renting from the unit owner.
