Water hammer and water pooling on the floor
Former Tenant
Pros:
The unit was spacious with many closets. The apartment is conveniently located near the A train and a supermarket.
Cons:
Water hammer during winter months made it impossible to sleep. It sounded like a hammer banging on a metal pipe and occurred every 45 minutes, lasting about two minutes each time. In addition, the sink drained into the dishwasher, meaning that water pooled on the floor every day, as the filter was smaller in the dishwasher and clogged repeatedly. The super is not responsive, and management repeatedly promised to fix the issues but never did.
