Avoid This Location At All Costs
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nothing at all.
Cons:
The owners are unresponsive to urgent requests and won't get things fixed for 3 weeks to a month.
Advice to owner:
Do better and be more responsive.

Don’t live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
Many apartments do have fairly updated appliances and renovations as well as in unit laundry.
Cons:
We had ongoing leaks in our apartment for over 9 months. The resolution was always to cover up the leaking spots until they started leaking again. Response from management and super was always so slow, the issue was never resolved and action was never taken until we were moving out and they had to start getting ready to show it to new renters. The super would never come at the time we set up to fix issues we had, and would show up without warning. Also, you can hear everything in the apartment above you.

Random no hot water mornings
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building is quiet and you hardly see or hear neighbors.
Cons:
Super is like Santa Claus, you see him once per year. There are mornings when you’ll wake up to no hot water.
Advice to owner:
Get us a full time Super!

Don’t Live Here
Former Tenant
Pros:
The rent is fine, but it should be less. There are 4 bedroom units, and those are hard to come by sometimes.
Cons:
Building management is impossible to get in contact with, when we first moved in the apartment was still being worked on even though we were told it would be ready. There were many things in the apartment and around the building that directly violated renters rights, including the front door almost never locking (and still doesn’t, there’s actually not a handle on it right now and there hasn’t been for almost a week). In order to get in contact with management we had to try three or four different phone numbers and once we did get in contact and raised a list of our concerns that violated our renters rights, it was clear that he had no idea what we were talking about, and was dismissive and clueless about major health and safety issues that we had emailed about MANY times. The super and his workers are nice enough but only helpful seemingly when it’s convenient to them, being barely responsive and almost never showing up at the times they say they will, and taking weeks to fix serious issues that normally would take days. There isn’t a radiator in the living room, there is one in only three out of the four rooms, and they are barely ever pumping heat during the day, so the temperature in the apartment and especially the living room and one room without a heater are often below legal temperatures during winter. There was a large period of time (months) that the hot water heater hadn’t been checked and there was no hot water readily available. It’s simply clear that building management doesn’t care, and will do anything to get money and that’s it. I know many tenants have reported to 311, but nothing seems to have been happening at all. Leaving as soon as the lease is up and I hope nobody ever moves into the place after I’m gone until there’s new management that actually knows what they’re doing and understands basic renters and human rights.
Advice to owner:
Read the law and renters rights, and don’t be cheap. People deserve to be treated better than the mountain of trash that piles up in the garbage area of this building

Don't move here
Former Tenant
Pros:
The rent is okay
Cons:
Nothing else about this building is appealing. The hallways are disgusting and neighbors smoke in the hallways. Some of the neighbors are noisy and rude. One time a girl screamed her lungs out at me because she was ringing my buzzer after midnight and said I should've let her in because she lived here (I didn't know her). I have had very large cockroaches in the apartment, and I see them in the hallways of the building. And worst of all, the super is not responsive. I used to live in a building with a slow/unresponsive super, but this guy might as well not even be called the super. Our very front door lock has been broken for two months....anybody off the street can walk in. I've reported this multiple times to 311, but the building management does not seem to care. The super has also ignored other requests, says he'll be by to fix something at a certain time and doesn't show up, etc. One time they replaced the front door lock without notifying the residents so some of us got locked out, which is illegal. This place is a complete joke.
Advice to owner:
Fire the super.

Don’t Live Here.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Washer and dryer in unit. Bedrooms and two bathrooms. Nice part of Central Harlem with access to City College. Nice Neighbors in building.
Cons:
Absolutely horrendous property management. I can’t even fault the super because he’s clearly stretched so thin. Unfinished maintenance (broken window never fixed, broken door, self locking door never fixed, I could go on.) and shoddy pest control (almost no follow up on a family of mice), not to mention lack of care for safety (on a call with the owner, he laughed when we said we didn’t have fire alarms on move in day, a violation of tenants’ rights.) Do not live here. Can’t wait for our lease to be up.
Advice to owner:
Actually pay attention to your building. It might actually pay off in the long run. If I could, I would individually tell each person not to live here.
