Good area, terrible management
Pros
The building is undergoing renovations and is in a great spot in Manhattan (safe area, walkable neighborhood, restaurants and bars nearby).
Cons
This building experienced a fire in summer 2022, and there have been a litany of issues since. Management has poor responsiveness and a lack of empathy to these issues, and has avoided taking responsibility or accountability for their mistakes.
Fine first apartment
Pros
Generally quiet. Good access to subway.
Cons
Smells weird in hallway. Difficult to contact owner.
