Ideal for young, active individuals or small businesses that don’t rely on heavy foot traffic. Families, seniors, or anyone with heavy equipment should look elsewhere. If the landlord adds an elevator or even a simple pulley system for cargo, this building would easily jump to 4.5 stars. As is, it’s a solid, affordable, and charmingly walkable option—just don’t forget your gym membership.
⭐⭐⭐ (3.5/5)
This four-story building strikes a solid balance between density and human scale. Unlike towering high-rises, it never feels anonymous or overwhelming. The layout makes good use of its footprint, with each floor offering a distinct function (retail on ground, residential above). Natural light reaches the upper units beautifully, and the lower levels stay pleasantly shaded. However, the lack of an elevator is a dealbreaker for anyone with mobility challenges, and moving furniture or groceries up to the 4th floor becomes a dreaded cardio session. 4 story building
