A solid first NYC apartment, but not forever home
Pros
The maintenance team is phenomenal, and the building is well maintained. Good amenities, including gym in separate building and laundry in the basement.
Cons
Some issues with package theft and smoke odor. Expect significant rent increases
Real gem in Hamilton Heights
Pros
Staff is super responsive and keeps everything running smoothly. 1 train is half a block away.
Cons
Great building in a grimy neighborhood. Loud music late at night from the street. Some people in the neighborhood throw their trash wherever and don't clean up after their dogs.
Advice to the owners
Treat your staff well because they do an amazing job keeping an older building livable.
