  1. On the garbage pileup: The fire department should be notified and the landlords brought to task since it is blocking the fire escape for 2 buildings.

  2. That is my apartment that was the attempted break in. It happened while we were not home, my boyfriend went to walk our dog and noticed this. Our screens were not only ripped out of their frames but the frames ripped out and bent as well. However, we have had multiple instances of people knocking on our windows and doors and people trying to open doors while I have been home alone.

    I honestly can’t wait to not live in this apartment next September.
