    Great Apartment building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Modern appliances, 2 bedrooms are the same size (good if moving with roommates) aka no master bedroom. Pet friendly, rooftop
    Cons:
    Laundry in building but only 2 washers and 2 dryers so people tend to not put timers (also they breakdown a lot), managements isn’t the fastest to respond to inquiries

    Generally good,management isn't very responsive
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Modern building, high ceilings, pretty good noise levels
    Cons:
    Management takes forever to fix actual problems like structural, appliance or floor issues. Im not convinced they want to fix any of ours.
    Advice to owner:
    Fix your stuff.
