Good Building, Poor Construction Communication
Pros
General good condition maintenance-wise, two modern elevators, in building laundry, good residents/neighbors, supermarket on ground floor is very convenient, very good commute to most of Manhattan with 2/3 and 6 stations nearby
Cons
Active and noisy construction with little notice to affected occupants, including construction of temporary partitions that reduce usable habitation area; one elevator is unreliable and frequently goes temporarily out of service
Advice to the owners
Better communication about construction schedule and milestones (when each side will be blocked off, when facade work for each side is expected to complete, etc)
Okay building, okay management
Pros
The location, sunlit, the amenities are great
Cons
The management is unresponsive, construction is disruptive
