Good space, Package Theft, Poor Maintenance
Pros
Solid square footage for rent (before the post-pandemic rent surge) and great location.
Cons
Big problem with package and mail theft in the lobby. I would avoid the apartments that look out on the interior courtyard/recessed basement steps. Not a lot of light, people smoke on the steps, and one tenant had a medical emergency in the space and management didn’t send anyone to clean up the blood and EMT supplies left behind for months.
Advice to the owners
Create a secure dedicated mailroom and install real security cameras
Good for the price
Pros
Relatively clean, nice neighbors, responsive to maintenance requests. Chill vibe - management not overbearing or nitpicky. Elevator. Occasional noise at normal levels. Peaceful environment. Felt safe.
Cons
Inner facing apartments don’t get much natural light and face other sides of the building. Package theft was a big issue.
