Loud but spacious apartments
Pros
The building is small, with only three apartments. The apartments are spacious, have good natural light, hardwood floors, huge kitchens, and are well taken care of. Building management is nice and relatively responsive.
Cons
Most importantly, the noise from the street is VERY LOUD. You can hear everything from all parts of the apartment and the building is next to a night club. There are the occasional pests, the heat occasionally goes out during the winter, and the apartments are just a bit old / rough around the edges.
Good spot with standard issues
Pros
Some great longtime residents for neighbors, light-filled space and responsive landlord. Good recent renovations.
Cons
Hallway bannister was always broken, and landlord never fixed the mailboxes (they could be pulled out of the wall instead of using key). No buzzer in apartment or PA.
Advice to the owners
Fix the mailboxes and install buzzers
