Constant water leaks were reported in various apartments. Rodent infestation was reported in multiple areas of the building. Building management has repeatedly failed to address resident complaints. No visible efforts to improve security, maintenance, or sanitation. Advice to landlord: Immediate security audit and repair of all broken locks. Implementation of a strict visitor policy and potentially hiring security personnel. Thorough investigation into illegal activities, potentially involving local law enforcement. Comprehensive structural assessment by licensed professionals, particularly of the elevator and staircases. Initiation of a building-wide repair and maintenance program to address all structural issues. Establishment of a regular, professional cleaning schedule for all common areas.

Pros: What pros? There are some decent tenants in the building. A tenant organization was formed to address issues with building and management. Cons: Everything else. Grown guys standing in front of the building at night. Heckling women, and others. Disrupting the piece. Homeless sleeps in the building at night sometimes. A stranger off the street followed a women into the building. That same guy masterbates on the second floor stair way. Honestly there's not enough room. The lock is always busted. Advice to landlord: Fire yourself for being incomptent and allow another person to buy the building.

Pros: The apartments are big but that is the only redeeming quality of this building. Cons: There were roaches, bed bugs and ants. We also had to hire our own exterminator because management is absolutely useless. It was overall the worst experience I've had in a living situation. There was also feces left in the building's hallway.
