Hot water issues and unresponsive management
Pros
The building is fairly nice with many nice neighbors, is conveniently located by two subway stops, the sunlight is fantastic, renovated apartment, nice windows. The super is great and incredibly helpful.
Cons
Hot water is an incredibly frustrating issue. Seems like there is always a problem with the boiler. On average it lasts about 5 minutes but is lukewarm most of the time and is often lower than body temperature. The heat is automatically set based on the temperature outside so the apartment is cold between 45º-68º. When this happens it affects how hot the water is. The management company was contacted about the hot water issue about 5 times in the first 6 months but they failed to respond after the first two messages. The sound outside is pretty unbearable as there is a constant party directly below the windows. Packages are often stolen from the lobby. Bedrooms are small with little storage.
Advice to the owners
Replace your boiler and respond to complaints
