SOMERBY, RICHARD A.
Cannot compute responsiveness yet. The building has 13 open violations but none have been resolved in our visibility window, so days-to-close has no data to average.
We haven't verified this building's policies yet. Pet, utility, and leasing details appear here once we've reviewed the management company's official site — we only show policies we can source, never assumptions.
