All 7 tenant reviews.

“Pros: A few of the units are huge and have great, spacious layouts that are hard to find anywhere else in nyc for the same price. I haven’t really had much of a problem with management. They seem rude at first but you’ll quickly realize that’s just how they talk. Maintenance requests get ignored at first but once you follow up, they will address it. Soundproofing between the units is fine, but you can hear everything going on in the hallway and everyone in the hallway can hear you. Cons: 1. Moved out because I just couldn’t deal with the amount of bugs I was getting. I’m extremely clean and still managed to find cockroaches on my bed, clothes, and in my dishwasher several times. And this is with mgmt already having an exterminator come every few weeks, AND with me using Advion and Gentrol regularly, setting traps, sealing all my food, taking out trash daily, etc. I probably spent hundreds of dollars on pest control products and countless hours doing whatever I could to get it under control only for nothing to work. 2. Hot water in the shower will shut off. I don't know if there's a built-in timer somewhere or what but it stops exactly at the 20 min mark every single time. 3. Windows aren’t properly sealed so you will get a lot of water inside your apartment when it rains. Be prepared to have towels lined up. Advice to landlord: The units are beautiful so this really could be a great place to live if only the building was better maintained (and all the gaps in the windows/doors/walls/everywhere were sealed correctly)”

“Unit 205 Pros: the design of my apartment Cons: Management's inability to fix half of the broken washer and dryers. Cockroaches in the basement. Mold in the shower chaulk. Hot water does not last. Hot water in the tub comes out brown-tinted. Noise levels. Package theft. Advice to landlord: Solve the issues you say you will.”

“Pros: …Proximity to the park is nice. Cons: 1. If you want to live here, get a P.O. Box. Your packages WILL get stolen. 2. Constant pests issues. Upon moving in there were dead roaches EVERYWHERE in the unit. After about a month there were live roaches everywhere. About midway through my lease the building was infested by horse flys, or something of the sort. There were about 10 new ones a day, and the laundry room was scattered with dead ones. 3. Oh and the laundry room… smells like mold. Good luck getting your clothes fresh and clean in there. They also kept raising the prices on the machines?!?! Like really, for your moldy laundry room. 4. If you ever forget/lose your key, building management will tell you it’s $100 to replace. THEIR BEST ADVICE IS TO JUST BREAK INTO YOUR UNIT WITH A CREDIT CARD, which is insanely easy to do. Safety first, am I right. Advice to landlord: Get it together :)”

“Unit 112 Pros: Pet friendly, backyard, good location Cons: Packages got stolen, raised rent $600 after a year, never responded to mantainence calls Advice to landlord: None”

“Pros: The building and the apartments are aesthetically pleasing. There's also a package locker room. 2 blocks away from the L train and B26 stops right in front of the building. Cons: Walls are super thin. We have a small laundry room but only half of the washer and dryers work. Rooftop is unfinished and the gym is a joke. Neighbors have complained about roaches and vermin but I haven't had an issue with either but the building did have an exterminator come through.”

“Pros: Upper floor apartments have beautiful tall ceilings. A lot of the tenants are very sweet and cool people - when I moved out they were in the middle of unionizing. The super and his family are truly lovely. Cons: 1. The landlord is shady and predatory. Never gave me a copy of my lease, never fixed anything as promised (eg cracked and broken windows), never delivered on other promises (like a roof deck or equipped gym). 2. The building was VERY poorly and cheaply renovated. My AC and heat both broke, cracked windows were never replaced, and at one point nearly every unit in the building had water leaks through their ceilings. Management was fully unresponsive. Tenants had to band together and threaten to stop paying rent in order to get plumbers over, who didn’t resolve the issue. 3. If you lose your laundry card, you’re screwed. The company that sends them out takes months to mail them. Washer and dryers were constantly breaking and the repair people just said that they’re cheap units. 4. The walls are PAPER thin. You can hear full conversations from tenants in the units next to you, and their DJ sets that would go until 4am. 5. When I lived there, people moved into the unit across from me and started stealing everyone’s packages. If you have a bike, even if you put it in the locked are out back, it WILL get stolen. 6. The windows are super thin and have no insulation. When people would smoke outside, I’d smell it like they were inside my apt. The neighborhood is really loud so you constantly get woken up by fireworks/gunshots. 7. Apartments are wildly overpriced given the cheap appliances, sloppy renovations, and aggressively rude management.”

“Pros: No real sound issues, clean halls and great building manager. Cons: The washer/dryer was alway broken and the building owners never respond to emails or text. The gym is grimy and small. It’s over priced for the place, location and amenities. The property owner tried to increase my rent (to the gross rate) in April of the start to covid. we moved out. Advice to landlord: Answer people, fix amenities quicker, much quicker.”
