An all rounder
Pros
Nothing is great about this building, but very little is terrible. Everything feels very solid, the walls are thick and don't hear neighbors or people in other rooms. The bathrooms are nicely renovated.
Cons
One of the bathrooms had a significant amount of mold, and the issue was only partially resolved. There's a constant supply of bugs. One of the rooms has a very weird layout with a partial column and closet that makes it difficult to use the space effectively. Additionally, the windows facing 2nd Ave are exposed to a lot of noise. Old school elevator that's pretty slow, but glad to have an elevator at all.
Advice to the owners
Upgrade the elevator, fix the bug issue, and have a super that can come same-day
