“Unit 3C Pros: Lots of space in unit. Lofts (sleeping, no standing) lofts in living room and bedroom + plus more storage above bathroom. High ceilings and cool architecture. Elevator, trash/recycling/compost, & laundry in basement. Trash (very small) chutes on each floor. Monthly pest control (first Friday of each month). Tenant only pays wifi & electric. Water & gas included in rent. Heat is steam radiators. Rey (the super) is great. Very responsive and easy to work with. Cons: Roaches!! So many, especially in the summer. The basement was full of them in the trash & compost bins. Laundry is 2 washers & 2 dryers (paid per load) that are in ok condition. Other tenants do not clean up after themselves when using the facilities. Some tenants also leave their trash in the hallway instead of taking it to the basement or down the chutes. Lots of noise from the street if street-facing from people, cars (honking, revving), and emergency vehicles. There is also ongoing construction on 12th street that sometimes causes not just noise but very strong chemical smells from the road paving. I had repeated heat outages ( from boiler failure in the basement. In my 14 month residency, I had 10 heat outages lasting at least 6 hours each. There are clearly infrastructure problems that either the owner or management are refusing to address. Advice to landlord: Perform regular maintenance and repairs on building infrastructure to actually meet the “luxury” advertisement.”

“Unit 2C Pros: - Great location - Balconies on many of the apartments - The best Super who has ever lived - Quick and polite management company - Pest control every few weeks Cons: - The heaters are too hot in Winter, we had to ask them to get turned down - Sunlight isn't great as it's North facing and surrounded by big buildings - The bin room is always tidy but isn't very "nice" - The in-unit laundry is small (but often not too busy) Advice to landlord: Perhaps give the central services a bit of a refresh!”
