    Loud and Lovely
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The people were amazing and I wouldn’t trade any of my days there for the people whom I got to know. The sunlight was golden, the space was wide, and the price was right. Live music every night, if you’re into that.
    Cons:
    Repairs were infrequent, though the need for them was frequent. Water issues, floorboard crack, gas issues.

    Don’t live here there’s no heat
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Only pro is living in the heights and transportation
    Cons:
    This building never have consistent hot water or heat. There are leaks in the building constantly, one super for 3 buildings, and
    the responsiveness is terrible to basic fixes
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the units before people move in, not just a touch up.
