Noisy street, has loiterers, smelly, mouse infestation
Pros
-elevator in building -laundry in basement with a cute cat -enough heat in the winter time -spatious layout -packages are surprisingly secure and doesn't get stolen
Cons
-rat and mouse infestation that never resolved even after 2 years of living there -if you're facing the street, it'll be loud -loiterers around the building who'll blast music and talk loud -the elevator frequently breaks down and you may get stuck inside -strong garbage odor in the summer time
Come move in with mice
Pros
The super is AMAZING, on-site, and incredibly responsive.
Cons
The only good thing about this building is the super. The landlord management company has to be nagged to respond - including massive things like a leak in my bathroom ceiling. Also MICE EVERYWHERE. Like, be prepared to live with traps in every corner. This has been flagged so many times it got flagged to the city. Mgmt does not care.
Advice to the owners
Seriously so many mice this place is gonna get shut down for health reasons. You want that? Residents have resorted to calling 311.
