    Would be great without the landlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Relatively clean building
    Apartment was newly renovated
    Cons:
    Landlord was routinely difficult to get ahold of. What he communicated to us wasn’t always true - we were told the apartment was move-in ready then proceeded to not have a gas hookup for the first few months of our lease, with nothing but a hot plate to hold us over.

    An OK Place to Reside
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Considerate tenant who place your packages at your door
    Noise level is a minimum
    No issues
    Cons:
    Trash is deplorable, the tenants here do not know or care to recycle. Trash accumulates so quickly.
    Advice to owner:
    Please get more trash bins.

    Walk up building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Wide stairs made for easy move in and out, responsive management and building super
    Cons:
    Far from subway, laundry is in the basement and you need to run the dryer twice to get the clothes to dry or run it on high heat
