Non-responsive management / amazing community
Pros
There's a very high chance that you will get to know your neighbors in this building and you will love them. Everyone who lives in this building is a thoughtful neighbor, and we all constantly look out for one another. The units in this building are also fairly spacious if you're lucky enough to only have to share them with one roommate. They just replaced the old super, and the new one is much more organized/efficient.
Cons
The building is dirty and run down. If you look at the building from across the street, you can see the visible cracks in the outer walls. If you're sleeping in the room closest to the street, get ready for heavy drafts in the winter time, and blasting heat in the summer time. The ceiling on the top floor of the building is literally crumbling. Any time it rains or snows, pieces of the ceiling fall onto the stairs. Management is impossible to get in touch with.
Lovely prewar apartment
Pros
Really reasonable rent given the location! On a busy street so a bit loud
Cons
Winter gets really hot — the heaters are really loud
