Building Overview
Building Report
Review Summary for 177 East Houston Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews praise the building's prime location, cleanliness, regular trash maintenance, and responsive office staff. However, some issues include occasional pests, noise disturbances, limited closet space, and delayed landlord responses. Tenants appreciate the nearby amenities and transportation options but express concerns about inconsistent water pressure and ineffective pest control. The building's appeal lies in its renovated units and safety measures. Suggestions for improvement include addressing maintenance issues promptly, enhancing communication with tenants, and investing in building upgrades to justify the rental rates.

LES Shoebox Heaven
Former Tenant
Pros:
It's super close to the train and the building is well-maintained. The office was always responsive whenever there was an issue and there a few because it's an older building, but never had an issue getting something fixed.
Cons:
Mice were a constant issue. I had a box of 20 protein bars on the top shelf in the pantry, and the mice ate all of them in one weekend. Also, the bedrooms at the back have to share a fire escape with two other apartments, which was an issue with people hanging outside my bedroom at night while I'm trying to sleep.
Advice to owner:
No advice is needed.
