Cracking walls throughout all floors
Former Tenant
Pros:
Surrounding area is nice.
Cons:
Cracking walls throughout all floors with only temporary plaster to cover over them every few years. Meanwhile, the exterior mortar between the bricks around the building are missing all over the back and sides of the building causing the interior painted walls to repeatedly peel off due to moisture seeping in from outside. The name of the game of this very large NYC real estate developer is buy it n’ flip it and jump ship.
Advice to owner:
City-wide so many lawsuits recorded in the public record and then settlements across multiple properties. Meanwhile, the 458 West 20th street property has intermittent boiler failures. Then there’s the flooding basement in the elevator’s shaft causing the elevator to not work making it a walk-up building every time it rains hard or lightly rains for a few days in a row. Your best painted walls will never stop cracking due to exposed brickwork on the building’s exterior around the back and sides. Go to the roof and look for yourself -look down at the exterior walls.
