Lived without gas for 10 months
Pros
Landmark status, exposed brick
Cons
Lived without gas for 10 months. No rent decrease and super just gave us $40 for a hot plate. Owner was invasive, would frequently request to enter our space despite not technically being allowed to do that, and she'd go through our trash. Super tried her best, but it was too much for one person to handle. Lobby smelled like cat pee constantly.
Nightmare landlord / neighbor from hell
Pros
Amazing location between 1st and 2nd avenue; good light in front and back bedrooms
Cons
Landlord is crazy. She entered our apartment without permission, took our mail key and went through our mail, and screamed at us like a banshee whenever we had people over (which was always within a reasonable hour and noise constraint.) the building would sometimes not turn on the heat and it was freezing. Kitchen appliances and set up is abysmal.
Advice to the owners
New landlord, upgrade appliances
