an acceptable NYC experience
Pros
no major long-term habitability issues, great location, decent appliances, relatively acceptable rent.
Cons
overall a mediocre experience. Heat sometimes doesn't kick on in one bedroom, water will run cold, the bathroom ceiling fell in at one point, a neighbor was apparently hording lord knows what - dead bodies? The people upstairs and downstairs absolutely LOVE loud music, etc. etc. - just a pretty regular experience overall.
Advice to the owners
time to update the bathrooms.
Super harasses tenants
Pros
The apartment themselves are nice
Cons
1) The building needs more maintenance, there constantly dead roaches on the staircase. 2)The building super is absolutely useless and extremely rude. You can’t directly contact the super you can only leave voicemails and this super also screams at tenants and curses at them - this is behavior is extremely inappropriate and would be considered sexual harassment.
Advice to the owners
Replace the current super (get him some help) and hire somebody who doesn’t verbally harass tenants!
