“Pros: Cheap, good super, nice neighbors Cons: Completely unresponsive management, horrible plumbing and roach problems. Advice to landlord: Address the issues in the building”
— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Unit #E2 Pros: - Julio the super is great--he even stopped someone from trying to steal one of my packages. - Management is fairly responsive - Rent stabilization Cons: - Packages are often stolen (likely because people are always coming in and out of the building) - Caton Ave is very loud”
— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Unit F3 Pros: Location to the subway and the park Neighbors Price for the size Cons: The building does not have a proper communication system. We need to hear directly from management when the exterminator is coming and how to contact if we have issues. I hate the stairs going to the trash - they feel dangerous. My apartment was clearly flipped from the last tenants and the construction is shoddy at best - I have mismatching kitchen tiles, my kitchen island is not properly installed, the kitchen counters were not properly installed so there is about a 1.5" gap between the wall and the counters”
— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Pros: The super is nice. Cons: Spiders. Lots and lots of spiders. And there is an incessant hanging that happens in the winter below the radiator. It wakes you up in the middle of the night and it’s loud and can range from 5~30min at a time of just straight banging. It sounds like a sweatshop below. Advice to landlord: This place sucks.”
— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Unit E6 Pros: Super is attentive, walls are thick, proximity to subway & prospect park are clutch. My apt is large and well laid out. Rent stabilized. Cons: Nothing worth noting. Advice to landlord: Keep doing what you’re doing.”
— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Pros: Clean enough, safe Cons: Garbage area is disgusting, elevator frequently broken”
— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Pros: Nice neighbors, allows dogs, high ceilings,the floors are nice looking even though chunks of flooring are missing. Cons: -I see on average a cockroach a day. -The exterminator comes at random times and you just have to be home on the random day he knocks on the door. In the 4 months I've lived here I've seen him once, and I work from home. -There are no fire or carbon monoxide alarms in any room. - We tried to install pendant lights. We took out the light fixtures and noticed that nothing was screwed safely in place. The wires were haphazardly connected with no bracket *its just a hole in the ceiling, with nothing to screw into the plaster) so we can't install our own light fixtures. -There were giant holes in the construction underneath both sinks. We had to cover them with masking tape to combat the roach problem. -There are no bug screens on any of the windows, management ignored any mention of that. There are very few outlets in thr apartment. -the oven stopped working randomly. I gave 3 stars for heating but I only did that bc thiss app didn't allow me to continue without rating the hearing. However, I moved here in the spring, so I haven't experienced heating yet. Advice to landlord: Please give us bug screens for the windows, a set time that the exterminator comes, fire alarms and carbon monoxide alarms.”

— 73 ST PAULS PLACE · Brooklyn“Pros: Subway across the street Near to prospect park Cons: Never respond to complaints. Inadequate heating Low water pressure Poor hot water supply where it counts - the bathroom Poor COVID-19 protections. Advice to landlord: Give Heat and hot water in bathroom and better water pressure.”
