Don't Move Here
Pros
Affordable for the neighborhood it's in Walkable distance to the Q train
Cons
Unresponsive property management Don't fix things in a timely manner Hot water will go out 3-4 times a year and they refuse to fix the boiler Neighbors are super rude and don't like it when you walk your dog
Advice to the owners
Replace the boiler and send maintenance to fix the little things
Very loud neighbourhood
Pros
Close to Central Park
Cons
Where shall I start.? 419 East 70th st is located on a busy street, heart of the hospitals. Continual ambulance siren, traffic jams, loud bars below with drunk people screaming constantly. Suspicious gatherings on the block, potheads and homeless people. Early morning trucks on daily basis delivering items to Dunkin’ Donuts, are very loud. Forget the outside! If your unit is on the lower floor - you’re screwed. This is the most noisiest building I’ve ever lived in! And the neighbours are something else, especially the collage kid from the top floor with a pit bull mix, round-the-clock running up and down the stairs - get a job! If you work remotely like myself, this building is not for you. Please do yourself a favour, pay extra buck and get yourself a nice clean/quiet place.
