Decent place but could be improved
Pros
Good location next to the park Affordable No noise coming from tenants within the building Friendly tenants with a community vibe
Cons
Co-op approval process Shady characters who didn't live in the apartment would hang out by the laundry room Garbage cans would often be overflowing Super is difficult to reach
Advice to the owners
Prevent outside people from accessing laundry room
Roaches in Unit and Unresponsive Super
Pros
Very centrally located.
Cons
Doormen were useless. I had roaches in my apartment, and the superintendent refused to do anything to solve the issue. Building was dirty and not maintained at all. The unit I lived in is currently being billed as 300 sq ft, but it's actually 110 sq. ft. No oven No freezer (it's called a "chiller," and is the top door of the mini-fridge, but does not get cold enough to keep things frozen).
Advice to the owners
Tear down the building and start over, or find someone who's willing to put in the work to make this place liveable.
