Overall Okay But Price Is Stupid
Former Tenant
Pros:
Central Heat & Air, Elevator, Only 3 units per floor, Luckily pretty respectful tenants & neighbors, Pet friendly, Location - not the street but proximity to neighborhoods, Close to subways & buses, Part of union square park so they clean the sidewalks but there's still a lot of homeless being near transportation
Cons:
1. Every time it rains, my apt ceiling (near the window) leaks to the point the plaster bubbles & explodes. Each time i've had to escalate to 311 to get them to fix. All they do is replaster & paint (sometimes w/ different paint colors), never fix the underlying issue.
2. If you're on street side, under the windows there are gaps in the foundation that cause air to get in so you'll be paying more to control the temperature.
3. Heat/Air is definitely not controlled by unit (ConEd) so you'll get charged more than you likely owe (quite a few months I was gone for weeks/month & bill was same MoM).
4. I believe other units on my floor AirBNB so it's revolving door of people, sometimes kids or noisy people.
5. Wealthy NYU parents paying for their kids so price is high
6. Basement is scary, laundry is not a selling point
7. When I moved in they advertised a rooftop, it's just a roof with a bunch of AC units
8. Mice problem where I had to fill the holes under my sink. When exterminator came in he said I did his job & there's nothing else to do.
9. My apt was HORRENDOUS when I moved in. SO DIRTY and the bathroom smelled awful. I still to this day can't get the urine smell out after so much bleaching, it needs to be renovated.
10. No dishwasher
11. Packages will get stolen, old-school buzzers & other tenants will just let anyone in
12. There has been a security issue. I've seen homeless people get in & hear people banging on the door & buzzing to get in all the time. One time someone robbed the liquor store downstairs & got in the building. Cops/Firefighters were everywhere at 3AM.
13. Busy, not quiet (high school, a lot of fast food, party city)
14. I had dirty water coming through my bathroom light/fan. Reading another review it's probably related to their sewage problem.
