Consider your options
Former Tenant
Pros:
The porter is fantastic
Cons:
Building repairs are slow and not conducted with licensed professionals. Clearly cutting corners for cheap labor. Not a comfortable feeling knowing that at any given moment another pipe could burst, or wiring could fail.
Advice to owner:
Please respect the safety and well being of your tenants.

Great location, awful maintenance
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location. Love my neighbors they are all super lovely.
Cons:
Water constantly goes on and off without notifying tenants. Pest control is a major issue! They have a bedbug issue but don't report it. I had bedbugs only 2 months after moving in having never had an issue with bedbugs in the 28 years I've lived in NYC. I also has gaslit by the super about it. The hallways are super dirty and dusty and haven't been cleaned in years and the laundry room is constantly dirty and roaches everywhere.
For any potential renter, DO NOT rent here! It's not worth it. Management does nothing to actually fix the ongoing pest issues in the building, including falsifying bedbug records: Units 10E, 2F, 3F, and 9E have had bedbugs and none of the adjoining units were properly inspected. Tenants also weren't notified of this issue, we found out about it from other tenants.
Advice to owner:
Clean the actual hallways and stairwells, and actually do proper pest control for bedbugs.
