Lovely family oriented building
Pros
We love our little apartment. Location is amazing, 1 minute walk to the train and lots of buses yet still feels quiet, tons of restaurants around and multiple bodegas on the block. The building is kept meticulously clean, the super and his team are amazing. Neighbors are extremely sweet. Very family vibe. Heat never went out and is used generously. Water pressure is good. Super is very responsive.
Cons
Management is hard to get a hold of and can be adversarial at times. Rent increases by over $100 every year on a studio priced under $1600, more for larger units. Laundry room is not well maintained, not enough machines for how many people are in the building and frequently out of service. Package theft happens occasionally in the lobby because there's no mail room. Courtyard is pretty but noise echoes. Walls are a little thin. Usually all we hear is people coughing, laughing, maybe the TV playing, nothing overly disruptive.
Advice to the owners
If management was as responsive and easy to reach as your super and his team, that would make this building perfect.
