Getting worse!
I have lived at 120 for about 4 years. We were promised building improvements when we signed our lease. Not only has that not happened, everything has gotten worse. One elevator is always out and, at times, both are out. Building is not maintained in a clean manner. I could go on and on but what’s the point. Stay away!
