Affordable Apartment, But Falling Apart
Pros
Only 2 blocks from the 145th station for the 1 train, cute bars and restaurants nearby (highly rec the Honeywell, the Wallace, and the Chipped Cup). Rent is affordable and there is an elevator (works most of the time)
Cons
Super doesn’t really “fix” apartment issues - any leaks or water damage aren’t addressed, and the elevator tens to randomly stop working. He’s really nice overall, but doesn’t have the time/patience to respond to requests, so everything is sent through the leasing office. also the stairs are uneven at some parts, and we have had a bad string of packages being stolen.
Fine, I guess
Pros
Easy to clean tile floors. Some of the rooms have nice decorative brick fire places
Cons
The ceiling is always leaking. Been "fixed" 6 times in the last 18 months. Only lasts until the next rain. Very loud street noise. Poor screens let in mosquitoes all summer.
Advice to the owners
Fix the roof. Fix the screens.
