Solid management company
Former Tenant
Pros:
Responsive management company, quiet building (except for the occasional annoying neighbor and outdoor sirens), nice/attentive doormen and staff, large apartment with good closet space, comfortable apartment temps in winter and summer, gym and laundry in building
Cons:
No outdoor space or indoor common areas, either private or shared (most of management’s other buildings have these), very dated and tired carpeting and walls in hallways
