Pretty standard pre-war walk up
Pros
Recently renovated kitchen with new appliances and flooring/counter/cabinets.
Cons
Steep stairs, top floor apartments are unbearably hot in both the summer and the winter. Bedrooms are tiny, bathrooms are tiny. Gas was shut off in March due to a leak. It is now September and the service still has not been restored. While the property management did provide measly 2 burner electric hot plates and an air fryer to every unit, we’re going on 6 months of our lease without cooking gas, and only a 10% deduction on rent. While they did work quickly to get the plumbers to begin repairs on the system, service still has not been restored.
Decent pre-war building
Pros
Good neighbors. Quiet building. Safe location on top of a restaurant. Helpful Super. No issues with heating/hot water.
Cons
No laundry in building. Had pests once; the owning company took take of it. Back apartments face a wall. No natural light/view.
