    A Bit of a Mixed Bag
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Everyone is very neighborly here. You have some people who would go out of their way to make sure you know how to navigate the bits of the building.
    Cons:
    Packages tend to get opened and/or stolen. The front door doesn't quite open when you press the Press to Open door. Elevators are usually on the fritz. Management does what it can but feels like more could be done.
    Advice to owner:
    Have the building fix what it must & have security by the mail room to ensure our things don't get stolen.

    not as advertised NO WORKING INTERCOM SYSTEM
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    UNRESPONSIVE to multiple repair calls for leaks, clogged drains, and roaches
    Cons:
    No working intercom system and no answers
    for when it will be fixed
    Advice to owner:
    get your property up to the standards you advertised AND GET A NEW STAFF THAT DOES SOMETHING MORE THAN LAUGH AT YOUR RENTERS AND HIDE IN THE BACK ROOMS AND NEVER ADDRESS ISSUES/REPAIRS!!!!

    It could be better.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s Rent Stabilized
    Cons:
    A little Ghetto
    Advice to owner:
    The owner needs to put money in all buildings to preserve the rich history it has and make it a Beautiful place for the current Residents and New ones to live.

    Disappointing
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice layout and room size
    Cons:
    Ongoing and pervasive bedbug problem throughout development
    Awful, awful management
    Impossible to arrange repairs/receive response to service requests
    Longtime tenants resent new tenants, very contentious
    Advice to owner:
    Get it together. Teach you staff to respect tenants. Do not advertise amenities that are not in place.

    Great neighborhood shitty management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice and quiet
    Cons:
    Weed smells at all times
    Advice to owner:

    Bad maintenance, slow responses
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Stays warm during the winter
    Cons:
    Maintenance is non-responsive. Crawling with cockroaches. Had a leak several months ago, and advised of the damages to the floors and walls but they still haven’t come to fix it. Whenever I put in a maintenance request, I have to do it twice because I always get word that “they don’t have a key”.
    Advice to owner:
    Listen to maintenance requests and do them timely!

    Updated but poorly managed
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Updated appliances, nice apartments, trash shoots and recycling on every floor, in building laundry room and package room.
    Cons:
    Management almost entirely unresponsive when it comes to repairs etc. have things in need of repair since before Covid and have not been attended to. Constantly sending emails about leak repairs etc as they upgrade the building, and recently there has been a bad roach infestation. Gates to the property are always broken.
    Could not be reached once the pandemic started. Once I finally got through to them they said they were only reaching out to residents who were behind on payments.
    Advice to owner:
    Management needs to treat people like this is their home.
