the end is nigh
Pros
great neighborhood, great neighbors, great light.
Cons
the real estate company who owns this building really doesn't care about the tenants. you can tell from the plastic light fixtures and cheap vinyl flooring that they do the absolute bare minimum to keep this place together. they are adding significant price increases to rent ($700), I am sure that all tenants are about to get the boot. this building and the apartments are barely worth the rent we already pay (peep inside the interior lining of the washing machines, potential gentrifiers replacing us!!), and by hurting the people who live here (some of whom, especially black folks who have lived here for decades), it only proves how craven and disconnected these mgmt companies really are.
Advice to the owners
please care more for the tenants. please don't raise the rents.
Great location with downsides
Pros
Good sized apartment, great location, relatively cheap for the area
Cons
Older units, not updated, loud bar across the street, elevators were always out
