Good building, awful management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great construction quality. Great thermal and noise insulation. Decent appliances. Mostly respectful neighbors.
Cons:
When we moved in, the building was clean and well-maintained. By the time we left a year and a half later in 2022, it was a mess. So glad we left.

Also get ready to have your rent skyrocket year after year. Ours started at $2300 and they wanted to increase it to $3700 at the end of the lease. Again, glad we left.

At one point, the main fire alarm went off, blaring loudly. Fire department rushed in and told us the owner had to disable it. It wasn't disabled for DAYS. Door got broken into and stayed that way for a few days. Smoke/CO2 detectors with low batteries beeping all over the common areas. Door to the roof never worked. Roof is dominated (and cluttered) by a couple neighbors who used to leave their door up there to do their business.

Some tenants (mostly young Bushwick crowd), put trash in front of the building or dump their stuff in the common areas. Owner never did anything.

Really hard to get ahold of management and maintenance, bordering on impossible. Too many numbers to call and poor communication between them.
Advice to owner:
Be more responsive to tenants. Fix your new building or it will look like a dump soon.

Beautiful building with nice apartments
Former Tenant
Pros:
The apartments are nice and well maintained with high end finishes.
Cons:
Roof is a mess, some neighbors let their pets use the shared space as a bathroom. Tenants leave trash right in front of building door.

Management DOES NOT RESPOND
Advice to owner:
Please stop making it so hard to get the smallest issues fixed.

Great building, less-than-competent facility management
Former Tenant
Pros:
The apartment itself is really nice.
The building is new.
Solid thermal and sound insulation.
Nice appliances (refrigerator, dishwasher, stove/oven)
The cleaning service they use always does a good job making sure the shared spaces are clean and that the trash is disposed of on a regular basis.
Cons:
It takes forever to get something simple fixed. I know this isn't unique in this city, but it's almost laughable how you have to email and follow up for every single tiny little step in the process of getting something fixed.
There is little enforcement of tenants' use of the space. The rooftop is often a mess because the tenants upstairs just leave their stuff lying around and let their pets use the rooftop as a bathroom. Also, tenants dispose of items by just leaving them thrown on the street.
Advice to owner:
You have a beautiful building! By investing in making sure that staff fix issues as they arise and by communicating and ebforcing expectations of cleanliness to tenants, this building would be perceived as a high quality apartment building. Right now, it is starting to look run down because of all the small issues that are accumulating and because of tenants' inappropriate use of the common spaces as storage and a living space for their pets.
