First Floor is Illegal
Pros
Spacious living room, large windows, large bathroom.
Cons
The first floor of this building (unit A) is duplexed with a cellar (see Certificate of Occupancy) which has two bedrooms. It is illegal to have bedrooms located in a cellar in NYC due to serious risks including flooding, lack of egress, pest infestation, and carbon monoxide poisoning from lack of ventilation. The first floor unit has experienced awful flooding numerous times, each time putting the tenants at serious risk of electrocution, mold, and disease spread from sewer runoff. The units located on the second and third floor are legal residences, but have a small refrigerator and inefficient appliances.
Advice to the owners
Pay the fines you owe the city for your open violations on this building, and seal off the illegal cellar units before someone gets seriously hurt.
Don’t go there!!!

Advice to the owners
Make the required work to at least solve the flooding issue! Be responsible!
