Nice neighbors
Amazing location
Apartment is quite nice

Unresponsive owner
Heat and hot water regularly turn off

Unresponsive super who avoids real issues and gives vague responses, often because it’s what owner asks him to do

Great neighbors, poor management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Spacious units, (mostly) quiet neighbors, great location.
Cons:
Poorly maintained building. Super is friendly but does the bare minimum in terms of upkeep or repairs.
Advice to owner:
Take some pride in managing the space. Clean more regularly, update broken fixtures, add some amenities like postal lockers.

Major Flooding Issues in Basement
Former Tenant
Pros:
We have a great spot in the basement. Advantages: no noise from above, this building is on a hill so we have sunlight and views, in unit laundry, no stairs or elevator needed.
Cons:
Serious flooding and plumbing issues the management company will not address.
Advice to owner:
Your building will eventually burn down from an electrical fire or collapse from water damage.
