Good apartments, horrible building
Pros
My unit was lovely on the interior with lots of natural light
Cons
There is a drug dealer living in the building, resulting in people coming and going at all hours of the night, people on drugs in the lobby, and package theft. The management company does nothing to help and when the cops are called, they simply come, ask the person to leave, and do nothing.
Not safe or secure
Pros
- Great location close to the subway - Modern updated kitchen appliances
Cons
- One of the downstairs units was clearly a destination for drug dealing, and the building's common areas (lobby, courtyard, and sidewalks) were full of people using drugs, loitering, and making noise at all hours. The building's door lock was often taped over to allow non-tenant access, and groups of people camp/sleep in the lobby or hang by the mailboxes looking for packages to steal. They were never confrontational toward me, but it's unsettling to come home late at night and have your door opened for you by someone you know doesn't live there. - Persistent problems with German cockroaches that nested inside our dishwasher. Also saw several large American roaches and a mouse. - Frequent hot water issues
