Avoid This Building at All Costs!
Former Tenant
Pros:
The subway is the only pro and it's a walk!
Cons:
Terrible Strongly advise against moving here. Do your research before making any decisions. Here are the major issues:

Pest Infestation: The building is infested with roaches and rats. These pests are everywhere, including in the yard.

Management Issues: The management is extremely manipulative and rude and can't be trusted.

Water Quality: The water is yellow and has a foul smell, making it unsuitable for cooking or drinking.

Poor Construction: The building is old and any recent construction appears to be done cheaply and inadequately.

Noise and Cleanliness: The building is very loud and dirty, contributing to an overall unpleasant living environment.

Neglectful Maintenance: Essential repairs are often delayed, leaving tenants to fend for themselves for extended periods.

Unsafe Roof: The roof is not up to code, posing an additional safety risk however they advertise it like it's usable!

In summary, the building is run down, unsafe, and poorly managed. The management is only interested in collecting rent and not in maintaining the property. Save yourself the headache and find a better place to live. DO YOUR RESEARCH, DO YOUR RESEARCH!
Advice to owner:
Proper Maintenance: Regular and thorough maintenance of the building is essential. Address pest infestations, ensure clean and safe water, and promptly respond to repair requests. Neglecting these issues not only affects the tenants' quality of life but also the reputation of your property. Hire New Mangement!
