Former Tenant
Pros:
Nice renovated units with in-unit washer/dryer and dishwasher, overall quiet building. Mostly responsive live-in super. Trash is always taken care of and lobby is cleaned once a week.
Cons:
MANAGEMENT IS UNRESPONSIVE AND COULD CARE LESS UNTIL ITS TIME FOR YOU
TO PAY THEIR BILLS. During the pandemic, we wanted to renew but never received communication from management. Called the office everyday for them to tell us the person we need to speak with isn’t around. Our previous lease had expired and we wanted to stay. Meanwhile lots of units in the building remained empty because most people left during the pandemic. We got the run around for months then one day received a letter stating we owed them over $20k and we had to leave immediately. We wanted to stay, renew, but we never received a new lease. Make it make sense.
We had a leak in our kitchen ceiling and in the storage space above my closet (which caused a mold situation) because of an illegal washer/dryer situation in the unit above us. The issue was never resolved and the leak continued after reporting it many times.

Advice to owner:
TAKE A BUSINESS CLASS AND LEARN SOME TO HAVE SOME CLASS. Or sell the building to someone who will actually care about its tenants.

The landlord and the super are not very responsive. Super looks angry always.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nice architecture. Modern interiors. Renovated properly.
Cons:
It’s gentrified so there is an obvious mismatch in the residents and neighbors moving in. Most are young professionals. There are some older residents who look at the new people with disgust. Not very friendly neighbors.
Advice to owner:
Respond to your tenants. Stop taking so much time to fix things. Don’t sell things as “new” when they are obviously old and used. In one of the units, we found massive blockages to drainage.
