Walker House 540 Broad Street, Newark, NJ 07102

"Big list of issues. Save yourself the aggravation and stay far away from this building. Incompetent management which leads to the lobby without any staff all night. Homeless people will come looking for unlocked doors after they walk in off the street. Not to mention paper thin walls half the building smokes pot which permeates hallways and apartments. Most tenants move out within a year. Neighborhood is lacking decent restaurants or interesting urban attractions. Traffic on Broad Street is like I-95. Elevators out of order or turned off to gym floor several times a week. Don’t make the mistake most people who move in here make. Look elsewhere."

"I had a tour with Taziah! She was VERY personable, knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I came back for a second look of the unit I was potentially going to lease and Taziah was just as helpful and patient as she was during the first appointment. I decided to lease elsewhere however I was strongly considering this property mostly because Taziah’s customer service and the patio while quite large I realized the layout was more important so I chose 50 Rector Park for a more boutique style of living."

"I lived at Walker House for three years and had a very positive experience living there. I loved that it was only a couple of blocks from Whole Foods, across the street from the light rail, and close to both the Broad Street NJ transit station and Penn Station. I found the building management to be very responsive to any issues I had. The building itself is beautiful and is well maintained. I also found it to be very quiet; although I could hear the light rail from my unit, the light rail doesn't make noise after certain hours, and I couldn't hear my neighbors at all. I would absolutely recommend this building."

"I have lived here for almost 14 months now and I love it. This historic building build has a lobby like a no other building. The staff is really friendly and maintenance requests are handled in timely manner. East facing apartments on high floor offer some of the best videos you’ll get staying in Newark. The view covers Passaic river along with Harrison and Kearny and with the most iconic view of the NYC skyline. Being an avid photographer I really enjoyed taking photos from here. I had 5 huge windows that offered me views of the East and the North. Having lived in Harrison for a while I definitely got a better apartment for the same amount. The furnishings and appliances are modern. Being 5 mins walk from Whole Foods, 8 mins from Broad St NJ Transit Station, 15 mins from Newark Penn station and having two light rail station on the front and back of the building, this apartment building is a steal and I highly recommend living here."

"They need to fire Jaime asap. The building is nice looking. The walls are thin, there were 2 fire alarms today. It smelled like sewage outside. Parking is not included. All that to mention, the GM is just unresponsive and clearly doesn't value her job. Jaime needs to get fired for a total lack of respect for us. She's unhelpful and so rude to people that live there. If you take a poll, I can name 10 neighbors that will want her fired. So many people complain. There will be another manager soon."
