If I move back to NYC, I would live there again.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Thick walls and thick ceilings, you can’t hear your neighbors from above or from next door. Building management is AWESOME! They fix any problem right away! They’re kind and attentive.
there’s a package room in the office. Laundry room is always clean and in perfect conditions, building and sidewalks are always clean.
