Time to Raise The Game
Pros
Doorman building Furnished lobby Large closets Art Deco design details Recently updated interior decor in hallways Great location near Washington Square Park Desirable neighborhood
Cons
Some services eliminated in the past 10 years. Doorman rarely uses intercom to check visitors. Deliveries from local eateries limited to lobby. Rare use of service entrance, 1 service elevator. Erratic elevator service (long waits, floor skipping.) Package room eliminated, packages parked in lobby.
Advice to the owners
Hold doorman accountable for important gate keeping.via intercom. Restore local food deliveries to our apartment doors. Comply with NYS law to consistently make due repairs/replacements and paint jobs. Manage communication professionally. There is little info about building-wide developments.
Amazing doorman and super. Building has many issues for price.
Pros
Doormen are fantastic and super helpful. So is the super.
Cons
Cockroach issues in laundry room and also in some apartments. They offer exterminator once a month but that isn’t a great sign. Ongoing issue with radiator system where it is incredibly noisy in certain apartments. Avoid apartments on H line! Also no sunlight at all even during day in H line apartments. Very slow elevators.
Advice to the owners
Fix the radiator noise issues!! Try to solve pest issues. Stop closing laundry room for holidays !
