Great neighbors, HORRIBLE building manager
Pros
Neighbors, great location for food.
Cons
Management, flooding, roaches, ants, appliances breaking, doors breaking, no preventative measures to fix major building issues. The pipes haven’t been changed since the 1920s so flooding happens all the time- when I complained about the flooding and asked for help the building manager Onika Saul verbatim told me “what do you want me to do? Hold your hand? Wipe your tears?” She proceeded to scream at me on the phone and interrupt me Everytime I asked when a contractor would be coming to fix the massive leak in my ceiling. It was mixing with the electrical and was a major hazard and all she could do was berate me for complaining. It wasn’t until I mentioned getting lawyers involved that she changed her tone and I got the issue resolved. The building itself is falling apart because building management is that deplorable. We live on the first floor and the building put a LOT of garbage and furniture from past tenants as well as construction equipment in our backyard. We have begged them for months to please remove it as the garbage attracts mice and pests and they have ignored us. They charge an insane amount of rent and any help you need you have to fight to get. I’m a born and raised New Yorker and Judith Drive LLC has to be the worst building management I have ever dealt with. Please stay as far away as you can from this place or any buildings associated with this management company.
