Overall nice building, astounding rooftop views of Manhattan.
Cons:
Owner/management are slow to deal with serious apartment issues, including flooding, mold, etc. For years they were entirely unresponsive. More recently things have become only slightly better.

Pros:
The people who work on-site in this building (porter, front desk, super) are wonderful. Very kind, helpful, and responsive. The location of the building is so convenient to grocery stores, the subway, and lots of great bars and restaurants, and even though it sits on a corner of two relatively busy streets, it's pretty quiet. Barely any hallway noise.
Cons:
Building maintenance is an issue. The grills on the rooftop haven't worked in 2 years, quite a bit of the furniture up there is broken or missing. The treadmills in the gym have been out of order for over 6 months. Additionally, there are some shady characters that hang around the building, typically in the parking garage next door, but sometimes on the roof or in the basement lounge. There are also frequently large parties on the roof.
Advice to owner:
There should be tighter control on building visitors and better maintenance.
