Drug infested hell
Former Tenant
Pros:
Is it somewhat well located, walking distance from other (better) places such as Prospect Park and Fort Greene.
Cons:
Drug dealer lives in the building. Be prepare to have a full-on open air drug market in front of the building, most days of the week. You will find drug users sleeping and defecating in the building. Packages are systematically stolen. The various managers do not care, and do not act. Avoid this place at all cost.
Advice to owner:
Get this property under control before something tragic happens.
