Good building to live in if you can tolerate traffic noise
Pros
Good sized apartment, gut renovated with good construction, thick walls. Elevator and laundry building, with nice clean and bright hallways. Never seen a problem with package theft. Great rent for the area. Responsive management.
Cons
The area is dirty, noisy and busy, it doesn’t feel like a neighborhood. The building is right in front of the Queens Midtown Tunnel so you will never not see or hear cars. Building repeatedly gets ticketed for disposing of large trash items incorrectly. The super doesn’t live on site so some residents had to take it upon themselves to shovel snow or do smaller building tasks. Elevator is very very small. It’s a 12 min walk to any subway so would not recommend to live here if you have to use the subway to get to work.
Good location, ok apartment to live
Pros
Building is good but older, great location and has laundry in the building. Super is responsive and helpful.
Cons
Sometimes it takes a while to get things fixed. The noise levels get loud outside, the laundry in basement is next to trash and can get a bit full on the weekends
