Beautiful and Sexy
Former Tenant
Pros:
This building is simply beautiful to look at. All the young people in New York who are simply having the time of their lives are brought together because of this building! The residents combined with the patrons of the bar below make for a a beautiful crowd on weekend evenings. I love living here and wouldn’t want it any other way.
Cons:
The people living here are noisy because they’re having fun, but I have never had an experience where I hear any noise that is a bother. Sometimes the number of people in the restaurant below combined with the occasional noise of the nerves will blend and become louder. This is not a bad thing to describe the building with in my head however. I just can’t think of much more negative aspects that would apply to the experience of living here that makes a difference.
Advice to owner:
Allow permanent roof access and rules to accompany if you’re so worried about such things!
