    Great Neighbors - Mouse Problem
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The staff and fellow residents here are great. Fairly priced door man building at a great location
    Cons:
    A mouse problem has escalated, particularly after the pandemic. Superintendent slow to respond and nonchalant about problem. Replacement of broken appliances took longer than needed.

    Horrible Management and Super
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The heat works and is appropriate in winter. Packages are safe so far. Close proximity to the park.
    Cons:
    Either scorching hot water or no hot water, water bugs all the time, out of order laundry room, lazy & entitled doormen, rude and spiteful superintendents, unresponsive management.
    Advice to owner:
    Your union employees are lazy and entitled, especially those with seniority. If your wondering why your building received a D for energy efficiency, the AC is on full blast in the foyer and your doormen are cold so the front door is open all day & all night. You’re air conditioning NYC. Your management straight up ignores resident requests for help. Stop advertising laundry in the building when all of the machines are broken including the card machine for monetary refill: this is theft.

    Great community, roaches are awful
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Staff is wonderful, apartments nicely renovated, great location
    Cons:
    Terrible noise from next door neighbors due to cheap insulation. Roach problem is disgusting and the extermination’s don’t do anything
    Advice to owner:
    Put in sound control and fix roach issue
