Great location, neglected building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Amazing location that allows you easy access to most train lines and easily walk to Flatiron, West Village, etc. It's a small building so it's rare that you're fighting for a laundry machine. The neighbors are all really nice. People bring each others packages up and are generally looking out for each other.
Cons:
You are right off of 7th ave and above a bar (Cafeteria) so it is always loud, especially when the bar has a party (Halloween, Pride, etc). Also if you run into any issues the Super, Harry, is pretty slow to respond/get a resolution. When I moved in there were a ton of roaches and the laundry room & garbage room have been "under construction" for over a year so you're stuck with a temporary space for both. Everything in this building is from at least 30 years ago.
Advice to owner:
Invest back into this building and get a Super that actually acts on the tenants needs.
