Review of building

Pros

Quiet overnight for sleeping

Cons

Everything is wrong.

Advice to the owners

Install cameras !

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Absolute fuckin nightmare

Pros

Garbage management is fine. The building is very close to essential stores.

Cons

The neighbors are egregiously inconsiderate, more so in the summer, in terms of cleanliness and volume. The management is horrendous. They do not enforce the rules and regulations of ones lease. Nothing is done about the blatant loitering and LITTERING in the building.

Advice to the owners

Install cameras asap. Compose and send to every tenant a letter encouraging them to be respectful and mindful. Otherwise folks will be fined for littering and disregarding the quiet hours.
