Worst Super, Crumbling
Former Tenant
Pros:
Cheap rent, though I think they raised our old unit.
Cons:
Terrible super who kept animals, neglected them and let them die outside our windows. Body count: 2 dogs?, 6 chickens, 2 rabbits. Mold, roaches, and mice in the walls. Ceiling caves in sometimes. Water pours into rooms. Owner seems to have no idea Ian is incompetent and disgusting. Trash area is a rat infested nightmare.
Advice to owner:
Actually fix major leaks. Putting plaster of it is not enough. One day a bathtub is going to crush a tenant. Floors and walls are rotting. Hope the Hamptons is nice.

AVOID Horrible super, disengaged landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
Neighborhood: pretty streets, quiet, families, near park and good trains
Size of bedroom + living room
Cheap
Cons:
Super: misogynistic jerk, keeps animals and kills them through neglect in a courtyard that is visible to many units (also attracts rats), improperly fixes everything, yells at tenants, spends more time on his man cave than working on building, rude to women, passive-aggressive notes on wall
Infestations: cockroaches and mice.
Leaks: multiple ceiling collapses, water/pipe leaks
Noise: distressed animals sounds, super's loud music
Cleanliness: dirty floors, dirty smelly mop water, overflowing trash bins that attract rats, smoking in hallways, major leaks and water in common areas, possible mold/asbestos/lead, dirty water
Management: passive aggressive notes, ignored requests, old faulty appliances, poor electricity, no notice for building work (example: wet paint or no running water with no signage.
Advice to owner:
Fire your super. He sucks and wastes your money re-fixing simple jobs he failed to do right the first time.

Terrible building to live in beware
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is the best thing here. Right next to prospect park.
Cons:
Mice problem that you’ll have to take care yourself. The floor is not leveled. It’s on a slant. Good luck with your back problems. You may have bed bugs at some point, oh and good luck trying to sleep with your neighbors making so much noise walking on old wood floors that haven’t been renovated since 1923.
Advice to owner:
You suck maybe use some money to demolish the whole place. Stop tricking young and new apartment owners to live in this garbage.

Great live in super

Super was friendly, always answered calls/texts, and took care of any issues immediately.
Cons:
Neighborhood can be rough, I was often followed by men
Advice to owner:
Keep up the great work
