350 Manhattan Ave 2023/24
Pros
Location was ideal, with the part across the street and around the block from the train. Great bars and coffee shops in the neighborhood and a Lidl nearby too.
Cons
We dealt with a mouse infestation for around 3 months and eventually had to pay OOP for another exterminator to come finally take care of the problem. Building management is shady and hard to get ahold of, but Nermin the super is great.
Beware of mice/impossible to get in contact with management
Pros
-convenient location to the train -great restaurants -Morningside Park super close by -live-in super is a superstar (treat him well, and he will reciprocate) -elevator!!
Cons
-MICE!!!!!!! (dealt with them for 4 months, exterminator through property management did nothing so had to hire external extermination services and got reimbursed for costs, which was difficult) -cold building in winter/no central air in summer -people always slam door to trash area which is very loud and disruptive (depends on apt location within the building) -apt was filthy upon move in -all closets are super tiny -no windows in common space (depends on apt size/layout) -mail thieves!!!!!!! -so crazy difficult to get in touch with property management!!!!!!
Advice to the owners
make it easier for tenants to get in touch when they have issues, and take better care of the building. do right by the people who are paying you!!!!!!
