— 591 OCEAN AVENUE · Brooklyn“Unit 1E Pros: Standard renovations in the units, live-in super who is friendly. Cons: -my bathroom literally collapsing management was unresponsive even after multiple 311 reports. They patched the hole with a cardboard box, refused to seal it. -rampant package theft -neighbors screaming in hallways year round--adults arguing, yelling, loud music no disregard for neighbors late at night. -rampant issues with pests. Advice to landlord: Do the bare minimum to take care of tenants”
— 591 OCEAN AVENUE · Brooklyn“Pros: Apartment seemed like a good deal for the location and amount of space. Cons: Roach infested. No amount of exterminator visits will fix it. Neighbors blast subwoofer to the point of vibrations causing valuable items to fall from the shelves. Advice to landlord: Get rid of the roaches building wife and evict the loud tenants”
— 591 OCEAN AVENUE · Brooklyn“Pros: The apartments are spacious and beautiful. If you take good care of your own space, it can be great. Cons: This building is always a disgusting mess. No one is cleaning on a regular basis. People hang out in the lobby/halls/staircases and no leave trash in the halls and no one does anything about it. Advice to landlord: Pay someone to come in and clean, the super does not. Have the super enforce the rules that that the common hallway areas are not for hanging out or a place for children to play.”
