    Paper thin walls/ceilings
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Super is very friendly and helpful. Renovated within the last ~5 years.
    Cons:
    The walls and floors are PAPER THIN. Our upstairs neighbors are SO loud you can hear them talking. The building behind a man is constantly smoking cigarettes and the smell seeps in through your windows. The building management is trash. It takes MONTHS to get something fixed and you have to call EVERY day to remind them. Rats are infested in the building behind so they are practically everywhere. Mailboxes have seen better days and need to be physically pulled open/slammed shut. Trash sits in back alley which makes rats flock to the bags. You can literally watch them run around and into the bags.
    Advice to owner:
    Sound proofing of ANY kind. Address tenant concerns promptly.
