Decent first apartment
Former Tenant
Pros:
Some of the bed rooms can be small. The building is decently maintained. The building is pretty young so you can meet people. The rooftop has a great view. The gym does the job.
Cons:
The amenities are not really kept up to date or cleaned that well. The building is a few blocks away from grocery stores.

Great Neighborhood, bad management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building is unique in that it’s a converted former school, beautiful rooftop with city skyline views, great maintenance cleaning crew for common areas, secure mail room (when postal services properly utilize it), yoga room, large windows, large apartment with high-ish ceilings and nice floor plan, nice lobby/ common area aesthetic.
Cons:
Laundry room has 7 washer/dryers shared with two neighboring buildings so often times there are no machines available to use except the ones that are out of service and don’t get repaired for weeks/months, the tv’s in the recreation room/laundry room/gym don’t work, gym bathroom has never had soap, elevators constantly out of service for weeks, weekends tend to be a free-for-all with parties on the roof and basement and tenants propping the main entrance open for anyone to come on in off the street, maintenance tickets/work orders submitted to management are often never addressed even after multiple attempts, package theft, when you’re in the laundry room in the evening it feels unsafe because you’re in full view to passerby’s on the street level sidewalk through the basement windows. Lots of package theft but also theft of bikes etc from hallways and management won’t assist by viewing camera footage.
Advice to owner:
Actually followup on maintenance tickets, update common areas and replace dartboard, fix what’s broken, have better security and be more on top of parties thrown by tenants and the entire borough.
