Great location, great staff, awful management
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is great. Right by McCarren Park, close to the L and G trains, and walkable to most things in Williamsburg.
The building staff is also wonderful -- they're all very kind and are a delight to work with even when issues come up.
Cons:
The management company is complete garbage. They change policies without letting the residents know all the time, and their management and upkeep of common amenities are just awful.
Advice to owner:
Be better at communicating with your residents.

Stay away - very shady management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nice location, but I would wait until there’s a different ownership and management team. It could have been a great building if management took care of the units that are falling apart, with mold, dysfunctional HVAC in many of the units, leaks. Instead, all they focus on is renovating the lobby to lure new tenants in while doing very little to keep exiting ones. The cleaning staff is nice but management are incredibly rude and will ignore for your months if your repair request means they need to spend any money.
Cons:
The units are falling apart - many tenants had no dysfunctional HVAC in the middle of the summer/winter. Some tenants had leaks and mold that was completely ignored by management. It just feels like management is 100% focused on attracting new tenants, but once you’re locked into a lease forget about ever getting a response from them. Management is incredibly rude and very shady
Advice to owner:
Learn how to treat your existing tenants

I’m happy (ish) here
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location, good size apartments/rooms, maintenance very responsive and quick to resolve any issues.
Cons:
They charge as if it’s a luxury building but went for the cheapest options possible (dishwasher, showers, oven, no kitchen hood, cheap flooring/varnish, hvac super noisy, countertops are very poor quality). Smell from other apartments travels through the ventilation (cooking, smoking weed ...). Also the decor is ageing very badly.
Advice to owner:
Improve ventilation in kitchen and upgrade work surfaces. Don’t be surprised the floors scratch when you go for cheapest varnish you can find.

Cons:
management barely answers the phones Noise: neighbors, air vents, thin walls, slamming doors etc.

Lived Here for Two Years, MGMT Is Shady
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location, staff is nice, amenities are pretty good.
Cons:
Management does not keep up with maintaining the building and amenities. They are dishonest with charging you for damage to your apartment and withholding more than they need from your security deposit. I caught them over charging me by $700, took them to court and won!
A bit of a frat house vibe and they did not regulate the rooftop as well as they should.
Advice to owner:
Don’t be dishonest!

Gone downhill
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great rooftop views
Cons:
Building nickles and dimes you and provides less service and amenities while costs increase. Doesn’t feel like a luxury building when A/C doesn’t work, elevators out all the time, massive and unexplained increase in HVAC bill. There is zero mask policy for the building with tenants and building staff not wearing masks, often in elevators.
Advice to owner:
Be more transparent

Horrendous management/no building upkeep
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rooftop, amenities, doormen
Cons:
Management is horrendous! Would avoid living here at all costs. Very greedy and will nickel and dime you when you move out. They apparently had to stain my floors and replace all flooring due to “a scratch” that was left behind. They sent me an invoice stupidly and said the price was less then half of what they were asking. Also, there is little to no upkeep to this building and they are letting it fall apart.
Advice to owner:
Stop being greedy and respect and listen to your tenants.
