Quiet building on quiet street
Pros
- 43rd is relatively quiet compared to other cross streets in midtown (then again, I’m on a high floor so I don’t hear street noise) - The super keeps the sidewalk, bldg and lobby clean. Each floor is mopped weekly as well - LL was quick to replace hvac units and dishwasher when they had a problem - when packages were getting stolen, mgmt hired overnight security
Cons
- packages were getting stolen - only two washers/dryers in basement for amount of tenants in bldg
Advice to the owners
- You’re asking just a little too much for the rent increase this year. There’s not enough amenities and 2 washers/dryers does not constitute a laundry room. There are apts going for the same price in doorman bldgs
Renovated, but overpriced
Pros
There is laundry in the basement, 43rd street is fairly quiet compared to the rest of midtown, my unit is renovated and there’s an elevator. Very rarely hear neighbors in their units. Responsive super. I haven’t had any pests in my unit (on an upper floor).
Cons
The electric bill is extremely high in this building. There are dead roaches in the stairwell, not enough washers for the amount of tenants. The rent increase is too much, but I wouldn’t save much by moving in this market. The water pressure in my shower is extremely low.
