Renter beware - roach problem
Pros
The neighborhood is great and the location is close to a number of trains. Big dog friendly.
Cons
I would not recommend living in this apartment building. The management company is notoriously difficult to get ahold of and extremely rude. There were many times my heat did not work in my apartment and the temperature inside fell below 40 degrees in the winter and the management company refused to do anything about it. The unit had a terrible cockroach infestation (hundreds of roaches) and the management company did not resolve the problem. They hired shitty exterminators who barely spent 30 seconds inside the apartment and were extremely unprofessional. There is no super and anytime something breaks you’re guaranteed to wait weeks to get a response over email (no phone number to call). The apartment is super loud 24/7 from the traffic on Atlantic Ave. and shakes from the G/F train underneath the building. It’s impossible to sleep here. Definitely not worth the price.
No stove or super
Pros
very pretty, great location, great price, outdoor space, close to so many trains, good bones so to speak
Cons
i have not had gas for the stove since moving in 4 months ago. the building has been incredibly slow and unresponsive. the super is incredibly hard to get a hold of and unreliable. there is constantly loud base music coming from some unknown source—literally everyday all day. the toilet has broken 3 times, none of which the building responded to. we did not have a fire alarm when we moved in.
Advice to the owners
get a better super and give tenants their phone number. stay on top of gas and fire alarms.
