Meh could be worse
Pros
For the price and location it’s worth it Great views of the park. Access to the park. Parking for a small fee. Lived here 4 years. Two bedroom one and studios available
Cons
Cold drafty old windows rocketed my electric bill. Management is almost missing completely Some water issues. Not great color. Pressure. On and off once in a While. Lived here 4 years.
Advice to the owners
Sell me it as a condo
All electric FREEZING COLD building
Pros
-across the street from Astoria park -dog friendly building -nice size apartment -balcony in every unit
Cons
This building is COLD. Not only is it poorly insulated, the heat/hot water is electric and guess who pays for that (not the landlord). We had drafts in every room and have made complaints to the landlord several times and nothing has been done to remedy the drafts. She has said multiple times that she will send a contractor to check it out and he has never shown up. The super of the building knows about these drafts and also hasn’t done anything about it. The front lawn always looks messy. Stains on the rugs in the hall ways. I’ve witnessed several homeless people in the building foyer because the entry door doesn’t lock.
Advice to the owners
-Fix the drafts in the apartments - do a better job of maintaining the building
