Reviews

Former tenant·5 months ago

feeling at home here

Pros

I love my location, building staff, cleanliness, my apartment. living here for 5 years

Cons

noisy when its windy

Former tenant·8 months ago

3 year tenant

Pros

Building answers requests immediately to fix broken appliances, shower pressure is incredible, apartments are clean

Cons

Despite having a rent stabilized unit, the building is undergoing destabilization and therefore the 421a fees adjust the price to market value, so you are not getting a deal. Tenants only realize this 1 year after signing

Advice to the owners

Allow negotiation for rent rates
