This building’s record with the City

Complaints tenants filed with 311, and repairs a City inspector has asked for. Most repairs are routine maintenance. Both describe the building rather than the people in it, and often predate the current management.

Problems here get fixed quickly — a median of 1 day from complaint to close, faster than the 4-day neighborhood median.

Does the heat hold in January? How long does the super take? Does management answer the phone, and were you charged what you expected? No public record answers any of that — only someone who lived here can.
