BSC HOUSING COMPANY, INC. · avg 3.5 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Pros: The heat worked great, and the unit was quite affordable compared to the rest of Brooklyn. Cons: Roaches GALORE! The trash chutes used to get clogged up so tenants would sometimes leave trash bags at the door of the shoot.”
— 1155 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE · Brooklyn“Pros: This building is towards the back of the development so it's quieter than other sections of Spring Creek. The porter keeps the building clean. The rooms are large, with great closet space, and most apartments in this building have a balcony with decent views. Parking is priced well. Haven't had any pest issues in the 25 years living here. And it's a good location for shopping at Gateway Mall, there's a neighborhood shopping center, the Greenway along the belt is easy to access and now the Shirley Chisolm state park provides great access to park space and it's on the Jamaica Bay so the water is beautiful to look at. Cons: The new management company isn't as responsive. They're using cheaper materials in the apartments for repairs.”
