Large apartments, roof access, friendly super, communal washers/dryers in building, pet friendly
Cons:
Pest management could be better (despite twice monthly extermination), building management sucks at responding to emails

Avoid this place!!!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location, great doorman, super and porter. Huge unit
Cons:
Terrible vermin problem. Constant water issues where they are turning it off for days at a time. Management company so hard to get a hold of, it would take me 3 weeks to get in touch with a person.

Tear down the building and start over.
