“Unit 289 Empire Blvd Pros: I lived here for 5 years, and had a positive experience. Clean building, good neighbors, responsive management and super. Cons: There are roaches, like almost any large-prewar building, but so long as you sign up for the exterminator every month, you will not have an issue. Empire Blvd gets loud, but the building itself is good. Advice to landlord: n/a”
— 289 EMPIRE BOULEVARD · Brooklyn“Pros: - Large rooms - Clean - Clean and working laundry area - Helpful management - Elevators in good shape - Emailed management about large gap under our front door that was allowing roaches and one mouse to get in. Our door is right next to garbage shoot so we wanted a guard on our door to block. Emailed and within a few hours, supers we’re screwing in a blocker. Cons: - Empire Blvd can get loud and bring in lots of soot at windows - Poorly insulted windows and floors”
— 289 EMPIRE BOULEVARD · Brooklyn“Pros: Reasonably clean building with laundry Fantastic live-in super Cons: Non-existent insulation. Prepare to hear your neighbors’ every step, their phone vibrations and conversations, and even bathroom usage. I haven’t slept since I moved in. Hostile landlord/building manager (Debra). Insanely loud clanking radiators that the super claims should not be sounding like they do but they never get fixed. Constant water bugs/roaches in basement laundry room and elevators. Advice to landlord: Insulate your floors with every new renovation. They need it.”
