Rent stabilized, with a side of cockroaches
Pros
Super is very nice and responsive. Has an elevator that works the majority of the time. Rent stabilized, which is nice in today’s market. Laundry in basement. Trash is emptied very regularly.
Cons
This building has a serious cockroach problem. They bring in the monthly exterminator but it’s obviously a much larger issue. I see at least one a month, sometimes they’re already dead, sometimes they’re not. Thankfully most of the time they are on the smaller side for NYC cockroaches. I guess that’s the silver lining. There was also a gas leak last year and we didn’t have gas in our kitchens for 8 months.
Advice to the owners
Fix the bug problem.
