Paper thin walls + Weed Smoke
Pros
Friendly doormen and staff.
Cons
Old building and the smell of weed smoke was a daily occurrence. Building is “non-smoking” but this is far from the case and management will do NOTHING but send out an occasional email. I had to open my windows all year before my lease ended from 30 degree or below weather to 90+ days just to avoid my bedroom from filling with the neighbor’s smoke. I even went through the desperate measure of moving my entire bed from the bedroom to the living room. If you are neighbors with dogs/toddlers you will hear everything. No sleeping in whatsoever. For more than a year there was massive leaking from the upstair bathroom, mold, and a hole that maintenance would patch over that would then leak all over again. Door knob was old and loose and fell out into the hallway at one point.
Advice to the owners
Do something about smokers
Solid management company
Pros
Responsive management company, quiet building (except for the occasional annoying neighbor and outdoor sirens), nice/attentive doormen and staff, large apartment with good closet space, comfortable apartment temps in winter and summer, gym and laundry in building
Cons
No outdoor space or indoor common areas, either private or shared (most of management’s other buildings have these), very dated and tired carpeting and walls in hallways
