Bad 4 U
Former Tenant
Pros:
I liked that the building didn’t try to eat me while I slept, but seriously, there are zero redeemable qualities about living here rent stabilized. Zero.
Cons:
Do you have time for a tome the size of War and Peace?!
Heavily heavily summarizing:
Agents of mgmt doing proxy repair work menaced me near my apt from down the hall so badly it made me get sick enough to need hospitalization. Upon returning 3 of these workers assaulted me on separate occasions and the nypd said they didn’t think a crime was committed. Mgmt wouldn’t tell me any details about their company who mgmt contracted.
My upstairs neighbor is a gentrification tool (a useful idiot to help squeeze folks out). Who the NYPD allows to believe he’s a sovereign Extremist. He believes he’s above the UNITED STATES LAWS…so they let him torment and stalk me (it’s been almost 9 Yrs now) and he’s made my ceiling cave in twice from willful leaks. Again the NYPD did not file police reports even when this guy also assaulted me unprompted till bloody from head blood loss. Off to the ER I went.
Mgmt refuses to provide rental receipts as per real property law 235a and e
Mgmt keeps cluster mailbox in disrepair so if you file say court papers against them, they can claim it must have gotten lost in the mail.
4 times they’ve committed tenant harassment.
Mgmt moved to a new address and didn’t tell anybody
Keeps signs required by law in the lobby regarding the supers info etc. : inaccurate or false
Ignores hpd complaints unless you keep calling code enforcement.
Built a series of decks and fences nobody uses which block the fire plan and are always locked so if there was a fire, you’d not be able to or know how to get out.
Purposely disabled my fire escape ladder so I’d feel cornered by the assaulters of which there were 5 assaults between 1/19 and 6/2019. Each assaults 32nd claimed wasn’t a crime despite them being hate crimes against me as an LGBTQIA+
Have been so awful I’ve begun a tenant organization and am sueing them criminally and civil , not an up action because they are the embodiment of Gentrification and SlumLordaldry

Advice to owner:
Quit your day job and garner a Soul at some point. I call my apt the Plantation House, and no, not the nice one in the center of the plot, the ramshackle ruddy one far on the edge of the plot across the corn…
