Paper thin walls + Weed Smoke
Pros
Friendly doormen and staff.
Cons
Old building and the smell of weed smoke was a daily occurrence. Building is “non-smoking” but this is far from the case and management will do NOTHING but send out an occasional email. I had to open my windows all year before my lease ended from 30 degree or below weather to 90+ days just to avoid my bedroom from filling with the neighbor’s smoke. I even went through the desperate measure of moving my entire bed from the bedroom to the living room. If you are neighbors with dogs/toddlers you will hear everything. No sleeping in whatsoever. For more than a year there was massive leaking from the upstair bathroom, mold, and a hole that maintenance would patch over that would then leak all over again. Door knob was old and loose and fell out into the hallway at one point.
Advice to the owners
Do something about smokers
Good place to live
Pros
I lived here for 2 years. The doormen and porters are excellent and very friendly. I always felt safe. The gym is great, pool is awesome, and roof is great when not under construction.
Cons
The neighbors can be tough. If someone leaves their clothes in the laundry for a minute too late, it is customary for the neighbors to throw that individuals clothes on the floor. There have been some squabbles in the laundry room. There was also too much construction.
Advice to the owners
Continue to keep your great doormen. Make sure some people aren’t ruining the experience for their neighbors.
