173 Jefferson Street,

Brooklyn, NY 11206

great location, even with the 10min walk from the train. unique apartment

a pipe burst in the wall between the first and second floor in the building and management was very slow and resistant to fixing the entire issue. our floors and our neighbors floor looked like a hilly golf course, and they kept rising. months later, we literally couldn't open the front door because of the swelling hardwood and management said "don't worry, it will go down" and we had to demand they do something. they then just ripped out the old floors and took another month to replace the floors.

water damage in the ceilings, sagging roof, leaks in the roof. every one of the roofers told us management didn't want to pay to fix it the right way. the walls in the building were too thin for all the crazy shit consistently happening in this building. haven't lived in a place where the cops were out front of the building this much (i never called them)

fix things the right way

The rent at the time was cheap but that was only because the landlord had the building zoned for commercial and not residential.

NOISE, the lower level “commercial” space is a grungy slumlord who leases the basement out to anyone who will pay. How anyone lives in those unsafe conditions, I don’t understand. Please avoid this building at all costs!!
