    Where Hopes and Dreams Struggle to Survive
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I liked how they tried to G me out of taking a shower by putting in a shower head with a little ball stopper in it, like for hamsters; that lets out a steady stream of 7 water droplets per second.
    Cons:
    There is a nuclear green dog piss every morning by the steps that never seems to dry or go away. That’s how I feel about most about this building and it’s tenets. Don’t let your urine turn neon green, and also don’t let this building be a permanent home.
    Advice to owner:
    After been quarantined in here for about a year, I finally stepped out into the world and remembered that your shower is supposed to drain, the sink is not supposed to get backed up every other day, and yes, that radioactive piss stain is still there.
