Unresponsive Landlord and too much variety between units
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location, great lighting
Cons:
You will never hear from the landlord unless it's your yearly lease notice. The building manager/maintenance also only responds when he chooses and does the MOST bandaid fixes- for example the stairs are always falling a part. There is a huge variety in quality between units. No security cameras and management refuses to install any despite lots of requests from tenants. One time I had a couple view my apartment without notice but I renewed my lease and gave no indication of moving out and management left me on read when I asked about it. There are zero amenities here and they raise the rent way too much each year.
Advice to owner:
Try living under your own management

Terrible management/way too expensive
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nice neighbors who are very communicative. Good neighborhood around but that’s about it
Cons:
Terrible management, quality of building is not good, stairs falling apart hazardous even going up and down. Trying to charge 2500+ for tiny 1 br with zero amenities, rent getting raised significantly every year. And on top of that a building is about to be demolished directly across the street, so it will be very loud and disruptive. Do not recommend living here at all.
Advice to owner:
Charge the price this building is actually worth, it’s robbery at this point
