Longtime tenant
Pros
Large apartments Most neighbors friendly/considerate Close to lots of transportation (subway, bus, express bus, highway) Restaurants/supermarkets/movie theater within walking distance.
Cons
Windows are cheap and drafty so lots of street/traffic noise, even several floors up Some residents blast music/tv Repairs can take awhile
Advice to the owners
Insulate/replace windows Update lobby/hallways Replace/repair washers & dryers
Not bad but not great
