Honestly the best NYC apartment I've lived in so far
Former Tenant
Pros:
I love this building. The super is beyond fantastic which has taken a huge weight of responsibility off my shoulders. Anytime I need something fixed, the super is extremely responsive within minutes. He is always on top of maintaining building cleanliness and repairs as well. He's amazing. I live on the 1st floor and love how quiet the street is during most hours of the day/night. We are always notified in advance if the hot water is going to be shut off (which rarely happens). The apartment building is not luxury by any means, but it has everything I need and is a good price for what I get. Best apartment I've had in NYC by far!
Cons:
The only complaint I would have is that my apartment tends to get cold very easily. The heat does not kick on as often as I feel it should.
Advice to owner:
Repair the heat but that's all :)

Great value & location
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building is reasonably priced and in a great UES location. Located within a block of the Q train and within a few blocks of the 6 train. Walking towards Central Park on 70th street is very nice. The building is reasonably priced for the location and while not huge, the apartments are nicely sized.
Cons:
Had mice and cockroaches at multiple points throughout living there. Ultimately had to take care of the problem on our own - measures taken by management did not solve the issue.
Advice to owner:
More thorough steps to keep out pests.
