Pros: The super, porters, and front door man keep this place running. The rooftop is nice. Cons: The management company that runs this place is comprised of completely inhumane people. The broker is also a piece of work. She is manipulative and does not disclose material facts about each unit. Stay far away from this place. There are roaches and dog poop in the building's hallways.

Pros: I love the apartment itself and I haven’t had any issues with it. Any small issues I have had have been fixed quickly and the super is very responsive. Cons: Management is effectively completely unresponsive. We’ve had a number of hot water outages this year, security concerns with no locking front door and random people in the stairwell, and I personally have had issues with incorrect fees on my rent bill. It’s been nearly impossible to get in touch with management about anything to get to a resolution. The building has also been through no less than 5 property managers since I’ve lived here.

Pros: Neighbors are nice, and the apartments are mostly renovated. Appliances are new. Cons: The management company of this building is terrible. The rooftop has been closed for over a year and with no end in sight. The treadmills were not functioning for months. We have had leaks every single time there’s a rainstorm and our neighbors have had mice.
