Save yourself the stress
Pros
Close to train stations and everyday essentials
Cons
Rats, mice, all pests imaginable. Super doesn’t put ANY money into the maintenance of the building, her and her kids use all the money on shopping sprees and the renovation of their personal apartments. Basement laundry only has 1 or 2 working machines for about 84 units. Random water outages with ZERO warning. Garbage isn’t well maintained, pest control comes and provides zero resolve. I can keep going forever.
Advice to the owners
Do the right thing and actually tend to the building and ensure we all have a quality of life. We pay too much money!
Made me consider getting a cat…
Pros
Love the location and courtyard, and the apartment got a ton of sunlight
Cons
Building isn’t very well maintained. We had tons of roaches bursting out of every crevice and some mice. There were also constant issues with the pipes. Went a lot of days without hot water and our neighbor’s bathroom ceiling caved in from water damage.
Advice to the owners
The building is just in such bad shape. Not sure if it can be saved, at least with the way it is now. Needs a full gut renovation to be habitable.
