Great area and neighbors, very poorly managed building
Pros
The neighborhood is really beautiful and great - lots of restaurants, coffee shops, bars, supermarket, stores, etc all within walking distance. All tenants that I have come across (which is quite a few) are all amazing people.
Cons
Aside from the neighborhood and neighbors, living in this building was a disaster. Major rat problems in the garbage area and ground floor. Bugs/roaches were a fairly big issue. Getting a super to come by wasn’t too hard for fixes, but the quality of the fixes were very shoddy and low grade. Multiple instances of carbon monoxide exposure. I found human feces in the stairwell on more than one occasion. There was a weeklong period where the key fob to the building simply didn’t work, and tenants had to ensure there was an occupant in the building they could buzz to be let in. Our apartment flooded due to the apartment above us - the building management said the issue was due to the tenant, but I suspect the issue was due to improper maintenance of the above unit - either way a bummer. Not a lot of good things I can say about the building.
Terrible management but good neighbors
Pros
Good tenants seem to want this building to be better
Cons
Management does not care that for over a year we have issues with no heat, hot water, CO and lots of roach problems in apartments
