    Simply Not Worth It
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice furnishings
    Close to subway
    Not worth the cons
    Cons:
    No insulation, which lead to no heat retention in unit and you could hear neighbors conversations regularly especially when you are quiet
    Hot water for 30min max
    Washer/dryer shakes the whole unit and is a piece of crap
    Poor appliances overall honestly
    Things would break and you have to keep reminding management and they might get to it
    Anything above light rain lead to flooding and leaks
    Building is under foreclosure (2022)
    Advice to owner:
    Actually do the work to renovate the building, don’t to things quick and cheap and then expect no issues.
