    153 West 139th Street - Cheap for a reason (Good starter apartment)
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Not expensive (might not be cheap anymore)
    Near multiple train stations
    Good if you're just starting out in NYC and want to live by yourself
    Cons:
    Noisy neighbors
    Apartments need to be renovated
    If the apartment is not rent stabilized, then it's not worth it
    Consistently stolen packages
    Regular smell of strong weed
    Advice to owner:
    Renovate the apartments and have noise policies written into the contract each tenant signs. Also install video intercoms in each apartment.

    Low income housing scam
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This is generally a quiet building.
    Cons:
    The management company Tryax has been accepting thousands of dollars from the city to fill the building with drug addicts. Behavior and respect for the building is at an all time low. There have been two fires in that last few months. Management refuses to accept any blame or admit to these problems.
    Advice to owner:
    Please screen your applicants better. This used to be a nice building but greed seems to have taken over. You should be ashamed by how this building is being run.
