Horrible, poorly maintained building
Pros
The location is perfect
Cons
We had a terrible experience --- trash area was so bad it made the entire building smell. Cockroach infestations from neighbors, a ceiling leak in the bathroom that the management refused to fix until I threatened to sue. The ceiling ended up caving in. Avoid at all costs.
Advice to the owners
Get a new job
Roaches, garbage filled alley, infestations
Pros
There was almost no pros to living in this building except the natural light on some of the top floors
Cons
This was the first NYC apartment I lived in that had a rodent infestation. We are talking about mice building poop-filled nests in my shoes and regularly dying/rotting around the apartment. I also got flees from a neighbor while living here, because they let their flee-infested pitbulls roam the halls freely. When I reported my flee bites (which I thought were bedbug bites) to the management company, they scoffed at me, refused to treat my apartment, and then let me pay for my own fumigation. More than a month later they apologized and told me that my neighbor’s apartment was full of fleas, and that I was “not crazy.” When it rained heavily, the main staircase in this building would turn into a waterfall, with water cascading down the steps. Finally, the alley behind the building was filled with large trash piles from tenants just throwing full on garbage bags and leftovers out of their window and into the floor outside.
Advice to the owners
Demonstrate more respect for your tenants instead of treating them like an underclass you have no problem making money off of
