not bad for what you pay for
Pros
washer and dryer in unit. huge bathroom
Cons
constantly people on the steps outside blocking the entrance. no elevator in building , noise complaints
Good place to live
Pros
Nice amenities - dishwasher, washer dryer, balcony, central air and heat, shared courtyard accessible to all 3 buildings under this management (18, 20, and 22). Small building, only 2 apartments per floor. Quiet building for the most part, balconies and windows are adequately soundproofed (not perfectly quiet, but very good). Generally responsive management/supers.
Cons
Apartments are overpriced for what they are and rent increases are steep (they will charge you the max legally allowed). Dated interiors, janky paint jobs inside. Narrow staircases and hallways make moving in and out a pain, and they do not sweep the staircases—always dust and cobwebs in the corners. Enormous bathtub, but it’s plastic and super creaky. Can’t sit on the stoop because the trash is gathered by the stairs and there’s a lot of flies.
Advice to the owners
Stop overcharging and being greedy, or at least modernize the interiors if you’re going to be charging so much.
