Don't live here
I'm not sure where to start. The elevator constantly smells like pee, other residents spit on hallway floors whenever they see fit, the water is shut off all the time on very short notice, washers and dryers are consistently broken, and you will probably end up with roaches in your apartment. The one redeeming quality of this building is that the management and maintenance staff are friendly.
