Beautiful Building with horrible pest problems
Pros
The architecture was beautiful. Quiet neighborhood.
Cons
The roach problem was out of control. Would frequently come home to dead roaches in front of my door and would find them in the apartment. I never truly felt clean living there.
Advice to the owners
More needs to be done about the pest issues.
Usually decent but no heat in the winter and elevator breaks down occasionally
Pros
Building common area and outside is clean and well maintained. Location is great and convenient, close to all. Supermarket downstairs.
Cons
Little to no heat in the winter: when it's 50 degrees outside, the heat is blasting but when it's 10 degrees outside, there's hardly any heat. Elevator problems: the elevator breaks down occasionally so the FDNY has to be called to get the poor folks stuck inside out. Rat problem in the basement. Neighbors: occasionally they are careless and leave the water running so it leaks down into the apartments below, ruining the ceiling and walls.
Advice to the owners
Turn on the heat in the winter or install a thermostat so it automatically turns on; upgrade/fix the elevator.
