Decent option in a great location
Pros
Affordable building in an amazing part of the UES. Building staff is very kind and willing to help with whatever you need. Neighbors are typically pretty quiet and respectful.
Cons
Building management is not responsive unless it’s something that could cause them an issue. We’ve been dealing with mold in our bathroom forever that’s taking them forever to fix. We also deal with some pests (silverfish). Overall, I don’t think management does a great job of maintaining the building or taking care of the staff (doormen, maintenance, etc.) - even though that staff is absolutely incredible.
Happy living here
Pros
Good views and doormen are helpful
Cons
Elevator:residents ratio sucks to begin with and then at least 1 elevator breaks for a few days every month. Floors creak.
Advice to the owners
Fix the elevators
