Pros: The front desk staff are really wonderful Cons: Management is really stingy and awful. Hot water disruptions occur frequently. Common areas close for repairs all the time. When we came into our apartment, we realized that the medicine cabinet was installed upside down and nothing has been done about it. On top of that, they hike up prices in absurd ways. When we were first shown pics of the apartment, they showed us pics of a unit where there was a proper bar counter (with an extended top where you can place bar stools) but it ended up just being an island so we had to get a dining table. We used this free broker service called Loftey, and i swear the guy Ori was just in cahoots with management because he just kept pushing this building without any real argument besides the apartment being “less cookie cutter” and having “nice finishes.” Advice to landlord: N/a

Pros: - amenities are great (post COVID) - concierge, maintenance, and staff are friendly and helpful - friendly neighbors Cons: UPDATE - 3/7/2025 - Constant construction and power outages to deal with an issue stemming from an electric fire in August 2024 - 3+ full day power outages - All day noise - permit runs through June 2025 - Management is not responsive - occasionally hot water will go out and become lukewarm (seems to happen about once per month) - because packages must be checked in at concierge, it may be a bit after delivery before you can pick them up Advice to landlord: Have some empathy

Pros: Very centrally located, easy to get on the BQR trains, easy to get to Fort Greene Park. A Citibike station is a 3 minute walk away. Cons: The air conditioning is extremely loud, the oven makes your apartment smell like gas every time you use it. The shower plumbing vibrates pretty aggressively when you take a hot shower, so that you feel like something's about to burst the whole time. Also, the all-in-one washing machine doesn't have separate sections for the detergent and bleach, which is very weird. Maintenance told me to put the bleach and detergent in together. I unfortunately signed a 2 year lease in Jan 2020, so I'm stuck with pre-pandemic rents until 2022. Also, a building of this size should have done composting pre-pandemic, but my idea was shot down by management. Also, management didn't organize a holiday gift fund for the staff, which is weird. Advice to landlord: Offer a rent discount for folks who signed a very long lease right before the pandemic.

Pros: Nice, clean, new apartments with great amenities Staff is very friendly and keeps the building in good shape Cons: Management is irresponsible and ignores tenant’s requests. Neighborhood is ugly and loud Advice to landlord: Please react to tenants emails. Simply ignoring them is not an option especially when they pay their rent on a regular basis during the pandemic.

Pros: Clean building, really friendly staff; washer dryer in unit. Cons: Responsiveness from management; needs fewer restrictions on outdoor amenities; no neighborhood feel. Advice to landlord: Someone who is running for mayor should care more about his residents.
