    Cozy and safe but poorly managed
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Neighbors are quiet and most keep to themselves. The location is nice, right near the park and local stores.
    Apartments are decent and comfortable
    Laundry in basement
    Allows all kinds of pets
    Cons:
    Super is rude when confronted and ignores you when you need help if it’s not convenient for him (even though it’s literally his job to repair.) The super would try and get us to pay him for repairs that management covered to pocket the money when we were new the the building. Luckily someone warned us about this prior.
    Management doesn’t like to pay for repairs they should cover unless pestered.
    The laundry room needs A LOT of work. Machines break down often, are dirty most of the time.
    Basement stair case and some of the basement has fly infestation when the weather gets warm.

    Great community bad board
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great community with loving neighbors
    Cons:
    Lazy board who doesn’t do anything and rules without transparency
    Advice to owner:
    Create more transparency
