Nice place to live in S/W Harlem
Pros
Close to Morningside Park, Columbia, and Central Park. Building is generally well-maintained (super mops the hallway multiple times a week). Haven't had any rodent problems. Close to a number of restaurants, coffee shops etc. around F. Douglas Blvd. There are nice trees on the street.
Cons
There can be quite a bit of street noise, especially in the summer. There are all-day weekend block parties on F. Douglas Blvd & 116th St, and sometimes people yelling & blaring music down the street at night. It's not terrible but enough to be bothersome now and then. There is central heating so room temperature can be a little variable in the winter.
Quiet building awesome neighbors!
Pros
Close to all public transportation, super quiet building with amazing neighborhoods! Laundry in apts!
Cons
Majority of the apts are updated and new but a few are still rent stabilized and not refurbished so when they have a problem in their apts management is slow to fix it which causes problems in ours which they are also very very slow fixing.
Advice to the owners
Listen to the tenants and stop talking down to them, get a better super who actually cares about the building and tenants!
