    "The building itself is lovely. It’s located on an underdeveloped street so it doesn’t quite have a neighborhood feel. Super close to Metro North, Amtrak, and all local buses. Big bus depot right on Water Street, about 3-4 blocks away. Pet friendly building. Almost everyone has a pet and there is a new doggy yoga place across the street. "

    "I wish we would have events and come together as a community because it has a lot of potential but unfortunately people around here don’t have the mentality at all. But other wise everyone minds there Buissness and stays out of the way so you’ll be fine so you won’t have anything to worry about. But we all need to get together in the East end and decide a lot of things for this community to fix a lot of issues and problem so we can work things out with everyone and everyone is happy and gets along very well and life could be way better in the East end.
