Amazing location and lovely doormen

This building has gone downhill over the past few years. Construction has caused chaos, noise, pest issues, and general unhappiness. Management is unresponsive to all maintenance requests. It used to be an amazing community but not any longer.

Treat people kindly, respond to emails/requests/negotiations

Convenient to bus and subway.

Filthy air and noise with constant complete apartment demolitions over you, next to you and under you, the last 3 years with plans for this to continue for years to come. Resident super is not available for emergency coverage weekends or holidays. Porters sent to deal with weekend or holidays are unqualified to tend to emergencies which are occurring regularly in a 45-year-old building due to the plumbing mix and match hodgepodge of installing washers in renovated apts while leaving the rest of the building with 45 yr old plumbing unable to handle the load causing floods in various apts. There is a lack of correct electrical facility to handle the laundry room in the basement, so the machines are constantly out of commission. Removal of the inside windows and outer walls inside current resident's apartments has not happened, so air conditioners cannot function properly without proper exhaust ventilation. The majority of residents still have double windows so no access to fresh air. The landlord has no plans to install window guards for the new windows so small children and pets will not fall or be seriously injured in the new windows 4" gap at the bottom of every window. I could go on, including but not limited to no real security in the building 11 to 7 as there is constant change of in staffing for the late-night concierge.

Hire a plumbing company to install plumbing in the whole building as the mix and match new with 40 year old plumbing causes floods and lack of habitability. Have the vents cleaned and an indoor air quality inspection. Get rid of mold properly. Install sufficient electrical in the basement laundry room so the machines are not constantly out of service. Hire a Super who is on duty 24/7. Hire and keep a Concierge for 11 to 7. Have proper mold inspections conducted by a regulatory agency before and after mold inspection and repairs.
