“Unit 1J Pros: It was a good place to live for the price and location Cons: Kinda felt like a college dorm Advice to landlord: Be more responsive”

“Pros: Nice apartments, nice neighbors Cons: Lazy property management, gym is dirty and small, laundry room is dirty and small, water pressure is horrible, Wyckoff ave is very busy and noisy street Advice to landlord: Invest more in maintenance and stop selling amenities that don’t work.”

“Pros: -Inside units are fairly clean and generally functional -No pests that I know of or have experienced - people in the building seem generally nice Cons: - rampant package theft - the building has a single access code that they rarely change so it's very easy for anyone to get inside the building and misuse the facilities - there's a large group of local high school kids that frequent the building, crowd and leave garbage in common spaces and facilities - management are unresponsive and unhelpful - various fixtures in the units get broken and are cheaply made and hard to get repaired - the air circulation is not great - walls are paper thin and you can hear what's happening inside - black mold in the games room on fifth floor Advice to landlord: Please ensure you hire good management in the building -”

“Pros: Good location, quiet, newer building Cons: Inconsistent maintenance of laundry room and shared game room”

“Pros: Very nice apartments and floor to ceiling windows. Cons: The neighborhood sucks and no one wants this building here. All of the local high school kids know the door codes and break into the building, trash the place, steal package, and threaten residents who actually live here. A homeless person also sleeps in the game room. The public spaces have been damaged beyond repair and cannot be enjoyed by people who actually pay rent. Management does not care that criminals keep breaking in and damaging the building. Literally no concern for the safety of their residents. Nothing is done for building security and they are unresponsive about emergency safety concerns Advice to landlord: Wake up, do better. This building will not last much longer under these conditions”

“Unit 1P Pros: Spiral staircase was cool. Cons: Heat did not work in certain rooms. I think the air ducts were honestly fake. Windows not winter-proof, very thin, sound levels outside were hard to deal with. They let go of the super right beforei moved out (2020) and did not let anyone know. You could not contact anyone for complaints/fixes. Packages were stolen frequently. One elevator broke the day of my move, no maintenance and no ability to contact anyone. Outrageous electric bills regardless of personal use (400-500 a month). Withheld security deposit as long as possible until threatened by law. Probably moved ownership (look into the offices of the first management company and the new one--hint, they're very close) to deflect criticism. Price gauged during pandemic, rejected negotiation, then tried to pull us back in when they realized no one would pay that. Facebook group i was once apart of was in shambles--think everyone moved out after their one year was up. Would not recommend this place or any place associated with the owner/management company. Advice to landlord: Get a real job, care about humans”

“Pros: It has a gym. Apartments are nice Cons: The neighborhood sucks. It does not want this building here. High school kids sneak in an steal packages and piss in the staircases and elevators. People throw big ass parties and concerts on the roof that go all night (yes concerts), super loud. The building owners are a quarter of a milly in debt to con Edison and the electric has almost been shut off more times than I can count. The washers and dryers always break. Did I mention that people break in a piss on everything? It’s almost weekly. It’s just not worth the nice apartment. It’s not. Save yourself and move deeper into Ridgewood if you’re trying to live over here. You’re right on the line of where the worst part of Ridgewood and the worst part of bushwick meet. Don’t do it. Advice to landlord: Figure out how to keep people who don’t live here out of the building. Get a door man or something. It’s a serious safety and health issue”

“Pros: The floor to ceiling windows and the industrial feel. Unique apartment, high ceilings, lots of light. Cons: Summer rooftop parties get loud and at one point there was a lot of package theft Advice to landlord: Doorman”

“Unit 4r Pros: literally nothing, just looks nice on the outside Cons: Multiple break-ins, during broad daylight. Management refused to cooperate until forced by NYPD. Elevators never work. Washing machines never work and steal your money. Building smells like trash. Infested with german cockroaches Local teens hang out in stairwells and trash common areas, which management will never fix. ConEd posting claims owner hasn't paid 250k in fees and power will be shut off soon. Management never replies to concerns. They start sending collection emails for rent the week before it is even due. Advice to landlord: Do not be landlords. Your "god" would be ashamed of you.”

“Pros: loved the gym and the roof- all common areas would be great if the management repaired things Cons: the owner never fixed the leak in my closet or around my AC vent and then blamed the water damage on my clothing to rats... so when i asked for an exterminator they said no there was never rats (obviously) and now my unit has mold Advice to landlord: be better”

“Unit 1K Pros: Utilities all work fine and well (heat, A/C, water), no problems there. Great location close to train. Big rooftop. Nice appliances in unit. Gym space is well-kept. All the very basics are fine. Cons: The walls in unit and between units are ~~paper~~ thin, to the point where you can hear your roommates if they're watching TikTok down the hall or if your neighbors sigh too loud. Good luck getting in touch with management to come fix or replace anything that's not an immediate threat to your personal safety or the structural integrity of the apartment. Make sure you do your laundry at 10PM on a Monday night and even then you might still have to scrap for a washer/dryer, because like 4/6 have been broken for months. Don't expect to play pool or really use the amenities spaces, they've been locked for months because someone broke several windows and the TV in the space, lost all the balls and trashed the pool table itself. Moral of the story: Could be a great building, but no one takes care of it.”

“Unit 1N Pros: Convenient location, great view, apartment layout is nice. Cons: No on responds to maintenence requests, general questions, and our lease was filled with typos and errors concerning billing & move out dates. Advice to landlord: Communicate better.”

“Unit 1N Pros: Nice rooftop and ok room layout, nice grocery store cross the street Cons: Bad mail receiving system”

“Pros: Cool unit. Big windows. Rooftop deck Cons: Maintenance. Safety. Management. Cleanliness”

“Pros: Building looks nice Cons: Owner and management are completely unresponsive and letting the building fall apart. The front door was broken and wouldn't lock for almost 6 months which resulted in a resident getting mugged at gunpoint. Packages are always stolen. The parking lot is never shoveled when it snows. The gym and laundry room are always flooded and broken. Saved your money look elsewhere!”

“Pros: Really great roof deck, fantastic amenities! Cons: Management couldn't figure out how to stop getting packages stolen, didn't ever respond to emails”

“Pros: Roof deck, game rooms, design, parking on site Cons: Poor management: ie trash commonly overflowing from vestibules, front door often malfunctioned, laundry room washers often malfunctioned, many parties on weekends, poor upkeep of all common spaces (ie dog poop not picked up in elevators, roof deck), poor management of package room (missing packages were common) Advice to landlord: This building is overpriced for how it’s managed. Get some professional help if you seek to command these prices. It’s a shame because this property looks great on the surface. I felt duped.”

“Pros: Lots of Amenities. Gym. Laundry. Nice roof and game room. Cons: Central air and water heater in unit so the power bill runs about $200 in winter for heat and I’ve topped $350 for the past 2 summers when running the AC. It says a luxury building but the amenities are NOT maintained as such. Advice to landlord: Friendlier office staff. Faster response times. For the rent to be that high, they should maintain all the common areas/ amenities better.”

“Pros: Near train, grocery stores, etc. nice rooftop and outdoor space, nice co-working space Cons: The utilities are CRAZY high. Things are starting to fall apart, the amenities areas lack heat and air as appropriate. In general, the amenities areas are not maintained well. Rents are way too high and the apartments are way too small not to have the common spaces kept up to par.  Advice to landlord: Start taking care of the property and completing repairs in a timely manner. If you want to command luxury building rents, you really need to live up to your part of the bargain, which is providing a well-maintained luxury building and apartments.”
