Big space and great neighbors with some small challenges
Pros
Close to the 2/5, 15 min walk to prospect park, right next to wingate park as well, quiet area (near the hospital so occasionally sirens but less than we expected), pet friendly, super is responsive and kind
Cons
We have not had cooking gas available due to an issue with management and con Edison regarding a previous tenant. Was told by management to just “keep calling and someone will fix it eventually”—they did not. We use an induction cooktop now, to our knowledge this has only affected our unit. Near the dept of sanitation hub and there’s always some litter on the street corners and the garbage trucks park long New York Ave
Advice to the owners
Better communication about non emergent maintenance issues
Great space, Management doesn't care
Pros
Lots of room, in-unit washer/dryer, neighbors are fine, management comes weekly to clean the common spaces as take out the trash
Cons
Management is inattentive and only cares about money, the building is steam heated so some rooms are too hot and others are too cold in the winter, hot exposed pipes including in the shower, I've come across 1 mouse and several cockroaches, no a/c in the summer is dreadful and dangerous to elderly and pets, I've heard people don't receive their security deposit back
