2009-10-10T20:26:31-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I live in this building for two reasons only...it feels safe and is close to where I work. There is a doorman and security cameras located around the building.

Locust On The Park: NEVER, EVER: Beauty with the mind of the Beast (Not Recommending)

2007-05-04T21:42:10-06:00

From nodranoff: The facilities and doormen are nice, but the Management Office (Dranoff Properties) is greedy and untrustworthy. Check reputations of the Dranoff Properties at the comments for the Leftbank apartment, too.
