Mott Haven

In Mott Haven, a one-bedroom on the ground floor of a small apartment building is renting for $2,100/month. The unit was recently renovated, with new hardwood floors, new bathroom appliances, and more. It also comes with access to a back patio, but you’d have to be okay with that whole ground-floor-apartment thing.
