    Great location but the complaints keep adding up
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s across from the park and near 2 Q/B stations. The on site laundry is nice, when management maintains it. The layout for my unit is spacious. The heat works. High ceilings if you are into that with tall windows. The super is responsive.
    Cons:
    Bugs. So many bugs. Lots of small roaches and silverfish. There are mice. Constant problem no matter how clean. The pest control is iffy at best. There is no elevator. The water temperature can burn your skin if you aren’t careful. The summer is brutal as the building doesn’t have great insulation or airflow. There have been multiple water leaks with little done to address the source of the issue. The water often goes out.
    Advice to owner:
    Be a bit more thorough with your fixes. Check back in after something was requested. This is a beautiful building but it feels as though you are willing to let it fall apart.
