Nice amenities, nicely sized rooms. Guperb area. Yitzy is a horrible manager. Unresponsive and dismissive. Packages and gym equipment were stolen and not replaced. Btructure isn't safe. Had issues in my Alat that were never fixed despite constant requests. Fire Yitzy.

location's amazing. Friendly neighbors. Good package room. Easy online rental and maintenance system. Trash chutes on every floor. Roof access! In unit laundry. Fast internet. Safe location. Decent street parking. Cheap labor. Temporary fixes. Some units have a stove That's a fire hazard(explodes on ignition). Expensive electric bill! ($300-$500/month) Party’s on roof (sometimes they’re fun! Not when you’re sleeping though) train is moderate volume when windows are closed. And BLASTING LOUD when windows are open. Balconies collect train dust quickly. Rooms run cold all the time. Used to have a doorman that stopped strangers from coming in and using the gym. Now we don’t. Sometimes if the package gets left in the lobby it gets stolen by people walking by. Take the time to invest in this building and fix it with the right tools and the qualified person for the job. Also by adding public furniture/communal spaces everyone can enjoy.

Gym, rooftop, other tenants, lobby, halls and trash is maintained well Manager doesn’t Rctually answer unless you constantly follow up unless the problem is easy to fix. You Rctually have to be persistent to get anything done Be more responsive

i love that it has an elevator and trash chute. my room was a good size too. getting our deposit back was easy. yitzy isn't responsive at all. even in an emergency situation. there were numerous break ins and stolen packages and gym gear while living here for a year. i personally had my packages stolen 5x and sometimes you would go into the package room and every box was empty. no one had been living in our apartment for 9 months before we moved in-it was grimy. they made us jump through a lot of hoops at the beginning. our washer and dryer never worked properly. we were paying $3900 for our 3 bedroom. when it was time for lease renewal they increased the rent by $500. i found a new apartment nearby. but 2 weeks before moving out and after signing a new lease, they came back offering $3800 for us to stay. if we had only known sooner… please be more responsive.

Location, large closet, interesting layout Unresponsive Besidence manager to service requests and when you lock yourself out they won't help you. The manager refused to pick up calls. No Heated water for almost 2 weeks Get a live-in super or respond to tenant request!?

Quiet building no issues from neighbors. Get a balcony and There's a rooftop and gym Gym leaks when it rains, roof is byo everything unlike these buildings a few blocks up with finished seating. Loud due to train outside your window and it does shake the building. Add in building seating and tables on the roof that won’t slide when it’s a rainy windy day.
