Love it!
Former Tenant
Pros:
The street is very quiet, neighbors are older and friendly, super is very responsive, garbage management is excellent and workers are very friendly
Cons:
Management/ owner is very unresponsive, we got our lease signed extremely late and when malfunctioning dishwasher broke numerous times for the same reason the unit was not replaced

Good super, newly renovated unit, but hectic building overall
Former Tenant
Pros:
The super during my time there, Ramon, was fantastic and really responsive. Most neighbors have lived there for a long time and are very sweet.
Heat/water/utilities are reliable.
Great access to trains and restaurants in the neighborhood, as well as Riverbank State Park a block away.
Cons:
Some of the newer tenants are chaotically loud and disrespectful (management is gut renovating, jacking rent, and pushing out some lovely people). The cockroach/pest problem is out of control even for NYC standards, which isn't helped by garbage sometimes being left in the lobby.
Sometimes folks climb up and down the fire escapes peering into windows, which doesn't feel great.
The owners are awful. Constantly accused us of rent nonpayment despite bank records and evidence to the contrary.
Advice to owner:
Don't rely on your one super to moderate this level of chaos.
