Rent stabilized but trouble brewing
Pros
-Location, location, location; access to park and subway is choice -In 4 years have not had any major issues, what small issues we've had have been quickly addressed (~24 hours or less) -Laundry room is convenient and usually pretty clean -Gym's OK -Doorpeople are generally OK
Cons
-First floor nightclub/wellness cult gets old. Rave-like parties on some weekends, obnoxious dining shed that no one uses -Tenants Association is forming citing many more complaints than we have -- the other side of the building seems to have more problems No automatic shutoff for central AC and heat
Unit quality depends but when it's good, it's great
Pros
The building is very new (I think it was built in 2017) and has a large laundry room and gym. It's right next door to a great grocery store and two doors down from the BQ subway station. The connected building has a rooftop that is open to everybody and it's quite large. The parking garage downstairs is also convenient for guests when they visit. I don't know of any roach of rat problems in the building. I haven't seen any since i've lived here.
Cons
They recently repainted the lobby and it looks hideous. A bar/club opened on the base level and it has been a sound issue for many tenants.
Advice to the owners
None that I can think of.
