Reviews

Friendly staff and responsive maintenance are recurring strengths. Residents are less consistent about sound insulation, and the distance to the subway is a common tradeoff.

What residents praise

A welcoming front desk

Longer-term residents describe staff who know them, help with everyday requests and make the building feel welcoming.

Prompt maintenance and tidy shared spaces

Residents praise quick apartment repairs and the upkeep of the common areas.

What residents complain about

Sound carries between apartments

Several residents describe hearing neighbors through the walls. Listen inside the apartment rather than judging sound only from the hallway.

Allow for the subway walk

Residents who like the apartment and staff still point out the longer walk from this far-west location to the subway.

Building records

Housing complaints are relatively uncommon compared with similar buildings, with noise accounting for most reports. An open mold violation makes signs of dampness and the response to leaks worth checking.
