    Sponsored by Home Depot
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Back patio and accessibility to subway
    Cons:
    Saw mice and cockroaches far too often. Thank god for Home Depot around the corner to get an electric mouse trap. Additionally, we had major heat issues.
    Advice to owner:
    Be more responsive and fix the heat

    Fantastic Location, Building Needs Some Work.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Neighbors are quiet and mostly young professionals. - Walls and windows are nearly soundproof making it easy to get a good night’s sleep. - Units are clean and mostly well kept, and some have been recently renovated with brand new finishes. - Prime location with tons of bars, restaurants, gyms, salons, and much more. - E, M, 6 subway stops are a minute away from the building, and conveniently located near many other transit options, including citibikes. - Very walkable and nearby beautiful parks such as Central Park. - No carpeting and only tiles in public areas and stairs of the building, which is a plus.
    Cons:
    - Building is right next to a homeless shelter called Samaritan Village, which can sometimes become unruly and sketchy. - Building and certain apartment units are quite old and needs major renovations. - the entrance area is shared with two commercial spaces: a bar (Strangelove) and a food shop (Kati roll), thus it is common to see people loitering, smoking, and speaking loudly on the building’s stoop. - The apartment units don’t get a lot of light, except certain rooms that are street facing. - Very narrow and long walkways makes it challenging to move furniture or bulky items in and out of the building. - Garbage area feels dangerous as it is not at the ground level and feels like you can easily fall in the stairs leading up to the trash site. - Trash area often overflows, causing many residents to dump their trash bags and other waste items by the mail area. - No live-in super, which makes it difficult to get maintenance issues resolved on time or for proper upkeep of the building. - Public areas and walkways are rarely cleaned, thus the accumulation of dust.
    Advice to owner:
    - Regularly maintain the building and replace worn out amenities. - Frequently clean the walkways and other public spaces around the building. - Trash area needs to be rethought and kept cleaned without overflowing into the building’s mailroom. - Assign a live-in super to manage this specific building.
