I love the area and I loved my apartment.
Most of my windows would face the street so it was bright and filled with sunlight. My plants loved it. The wooden floors are amazing and we had plenty of storage space.

But the apartment was in a bad condition when I moved in. I had to paint the whole apartment by myself because the old management was even worse than this one.

In the room facing the back of the building you could hear the rats screaming thru out the day and at night.
It’s a huge building which means there is a lot of trash, a lot of rats and a lot of cockroaches.

The super has three buildings. The poor man is over 65 years old and he works his ass off. The workload is just too high. And he is not a professional. The work he does around the apartments is good for a while but then it breaks quickly again.

The neighbours are not very considerate. Loud music or stumping around their apartment at 5 am, still wearing shoes was not something unusual.
In summer there would always be parties on the sidewalk.

It is almost impossible to receive packages in this building. The stuff always gets stolen. There were days where there were 5-10 ripped open boxes sitting in the lobby.
There is a camera in the hallway but it is not recording. The management just doesn’t care.

- get help for the super
- let professionals do work related to plumbing and fixing of issues that need a professional
- get the situation with the trash together
- get rid of the rats
- just get a safe space for the packages
- be not only responsive if it has to do with payments

convenient location for transportation

horrible water pressure/water temperature always scalding hot. Lots of rats in the laundry room always. Stairwells often dirty.
