Great building, mostly great neighbors. Don't live in 3B.
Pros
Beautiful building, large spacious apartments. Vermin sightings are sparse. Garbage is picked up regularly from the dumping spots in the hallways. Laundry in building. Everyone save for three women in the building are all lovely, the best neighbors you could ask for and I remain friends with them even though I've moved out.
Cons
I lived in a third floor apartment subleasing from an older woman who has lived there for some years. DO NOT LIVE WITH HER. She is very good at coming across as very normal at first, but she is a really bad person and she's profoundly disturbed. She's literally angry 24/7 and starts fights with anyone about anything. She will steal your belongings. She will monitor toilet paper usage and hound you about it. She broke into apartments and stole neighbors' money some years back, and she apparently charmed some old heiress next door into leaving her 60k into her will. Many of her housemates have called the police on her for harassment. When you leave she'll refuse to return your security deposit. The common areas reek of cat urine. She's currently being evicted, but chances are she'll find a way to stay and will die in that apartment. Aside from that: the landlord is a soulless, greedy guy and non-responsive. He has the super do his dirty work for him. The super has a politician's charm, but is sly and dishonest. My neighbors found my front door key one day. I know because they told me and said they gave it to the super. When I asked him about it, he claimed it was a completely different key, and I had to pay him $25 for a replacement. Yeah ok buddy. He also neglects responding to matters in 315's apartments because he has a side job as a handyman in the neighboring buildings. He gets paid to do those jobs so he of course prioritizes them. His nice act is to cover for all the ways he's messing you over.
Advice to the owners
The owner and super need to rehumanize themselves. Stop raising the rent to bleed your longtime tenants dry. Be responsive to apartment maintenance matters. Don't lie and steal from your tenants for a lousy $25 when you're rich as hell already. There are a lot of tenants that have been here for ages, they are not rich, and you're taking them for all they're worth. I also know you've illegally decontrolled a lot of these apartments. Karma will get you one day.
Great place to live!
Pros
The super is amazing! The neighbors are awesome! The neighborhood itself is very quiet and welcoming. Everyone in the building and on the block is super friendly. The building is kept clean and when there is an issue it is tended to immediately.
Cons
I did have a mouse/rat that visited my apartment on a few occasions...but they had the exterminator in right away and took care of the issue promptly.
Advice to the owners
Keep doing what you're doing. :)
