Bare minimum doorman elevator building.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Doorman Elevator building with nice lobby and good laundry.
Cons:
Management is non responsive for the most part and they don’t really care about the tenants just want to make money. Must be very low maintenance to live in this building for the price. Basically the cheapest doorman elevator building you’re going to find and they act like it.
Advice to owner:
Care more about existing tenants that have lived in your building for 5+ years.

No significant issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
It’s a well maintained building with a responsive super. never had an issue that wasn’t addressed in a timely manner.
Cons:
A bit overpriced for why you get. A lot of the apartments are large, but aren’t updated (kitchen/bathroom) and paint is sloppily applied between tenants. Paying a luxury price without really offering the qualities or amenities to back it up.
Advice to owner:
Do more to keep current tenants in terms of price flexibility or honor promotional pricing. Negotiating with the management once already a tenant has been a dead end...even during the pandemic.
