Not what it's played up to be
Pros
Good roof with good views on NYC skyline
Cons
Extremely poor upkeep of building amenities -- washer and dryer machines are constantly broken, roof was often left filthy, steam room often didn't work. Management extremely unresponsive. Members of management also drink and smoke cigarettes in communal space next to gym, leaving a strong stench and leaving behind their garbage.
Advice to the owners
Actually upkeep the building
FOOLS GOLD stay away
Pros
This is a new building with an elevator, trash chute, gym, and rooftop. It's hard to find buildings with those amenities in this area.
Cons
For a building that is no older than 5-10 years old the upkeep from management is horrible. The ownership group seems to use most of the amenities as their own and have no care for any mess they make. They smoke cigarettes in the basement so the smell of stale smoke is constant in the gym and laundry room. The laundry room has 3 machines, but more often than not a majority of them are broken. Management will let weeks go by before fixing them, so you have one washer and dryer for the entire building. The roof is large and has a nice view, but everything up there is rotting from lack of upkeep. You might tour this building and think it looks great but living here is a different story.
Advice to the owners
Have some respect towards the people you rent to
