Landlord will make your life difficult
Pros
Great location! Close to shopping, bars, subways. Pretty block. The super Luciano lives in building. He’s kind and tries to help. High ceilings are nice. The street was relatively quiet (I faced north).
Cons
The landlord Joe will belittle you, lie to you, try to pin blame on you, and generally make your life difficult. Everyone I knew in the building had a combative relationship with him or avoided contact with him. You can only get in contact Joe by calling the office where you’ll usually have to leave a voicemail, and he’ll only respond if he wants to. Radiator is very noisy! The super doesn't speak English well. Joe will let the super enter your apartment without you knowing, for non emergencies. No care is put into making the building look nice.
