Management truly sucks
Former Tenant
Pros:
6 floors and up on the right side, the studios have a beautiful view on the UWS for one person wanting to live close to the two major subways.
Cons:
In 2021, the gas didn't work for three months, and people moved in without knowing. In December 2022, the elevator broke, and the timing was not clear on when the elevator would work again, and NO rent $$ was taken off. The elevator was installed a few years ago, and it's already having issues. Also, the water would randomly turn off here and there without notice. Overall, management does not care about the residents or up keep the place. When you live here, you will have a problem.
Advice to owner:
Ensure someone is up keeping the building. And be a human and help and be transparent with the residents if there's an issue.
