Amazingly centrally located, right on the subway, quiet and very large apartment for NYC; rent controlled and reasonably priced. Had communal feeling and especially great for young families. Surrounded by a lot of green.
Cons:
Building rather unappealing from the outside, some neighbors are oddballs, water issues for a few hours every few months (though well communicated and handled)
Advice to owner:
More responsiveness around winter tempartures issues and better long term handling of the water pressure issues
