Nice building, noisey tenants
Pros
Building has nice amenities - recently remodeled interior with central heat/AC for each unit, new appliances, laundry in basement, tall ceilings, and great water pressure. The management company is always quick to respond as well.
Cons
Tenants in this building are often students attending Pratt - the floors and walls are really thin so it feels like a frat house most days. They throw parties often and leave their trash on the roof. I’ve had occasional issues with roaches, though they do come and spray once a month. Apartments do not have dishwashers, definitely a downside.
Fine, definitely not perfect
Pros
Location near Barclays was great. Building was reasonably clean. Roof was nice, apartment itself was pleasant enough. Garbage was always taken away promptly. No package thieves. They often sprayed the building for pest prevention
Cons
Noise - We were at front of building - lots of noise from park across the street, people constantly hanging out and yelling/screaming on sidewalk and stoop during the day. Poor insulation in room but not whole apt. Laundry room sometimes dirty. Maintenance slow. This block had the most rats ever! (But none in our apartment)
