230 West 147 Street,

Manhattan, NY 10039

There was almost no pros to living in this building except the natural light on some of the top floors

This was the first NYC apartment I lived in that had a rodent infestation. We are talking about mice building poop-filled nests in my shoes and regularly dying/rotting around the apartment. I also got flees from a neighbor while living here, because they let their flee-infested pitbulls roam the halls freely. When I reported my flee bites (which I thought were bedbug bites) to the management company, they scoffed at me, refused to treat my apartment, and then let me pay for my own fumigation. More than a month later they apologized and told me that my neighbor’s apartment was full of fleas, and that I was “not crazy.” When it rained heavily, the main staircase in this building would turn into a waterfall, with water cascading down the steps. Finally, the alley behind the building was filled with large trash piles from tenants just throwing full on garbage bags and leftovers out of their window and into the floor outside.

Demonstrate more respect for your tenants instead of treating them like an underclass you have no problem making money off of

Building is fairly well maintained. The on site super is helpful although you might need to remind him once or twice. They provide indoor pest control bimonthly I believe.

Plumbing definitely needs work. Will the shower be scalding hot or freezing cold today? Good luck figuring it out, because the water WILL jump to both ends of the spectrum without warning.

Fix the plumbing and control the rat situation outside! And give Hector a raise!

Cheap rent but not worth the stress

Roaches, mice, packages stolen every day and management does nothing about it.

Burn the building

Great neighbors and great sunlight.

Lived about 1.5 years there without gas. Management did nothing to make it up to us

Do better please.

Great location. Pre war building. Some great neighbors.

Super is sweet but over worked. Water leaks. Prest infestation

Be more responsive

Wide stair case.

Bed bugs infestations, rodent infestations, noisy neighbors.

Take care of infestations properly, don’t blame tenants and provide misleading information when you know there are infestations in multiple units.

Location, location, location. Easy access to 3, A, B, C, D trains.

Cleanliness. Lack of landlord caring. Neighbors can get loud at times.

Get the building in shape. 6 months without gas twice in 3 years.

1. Spacious Rooms, for the area 2. Quiet Neighbors 3. Well kept, clean street 4. Friendly Super 5. Management is super chill

The small things wrong with the apartment will never go away or be fixed. 1. The shower temperature is impossible to establish. Wouldn’t be a huge issue, ACCEPT that the temperature options were by no exaggeration unbearable. Freezing or Boiler-hot. And it will sneak attack mid shower when you think for once you’ve finally cracked the code. 2. Odd smell in the floor board of hallway. I thought something died. But smell would return regularly. People would come over and remark about the smell without prompting. 3. Management is generally chill, but that becomes a problem when you need them. 4. Kitchen faucet head needed to be replaced. And management pretending to be on it, until i finally just fixed it myself a month later.

If you want your rent on time, please don’t leave your tenets waiting for much needed repairs.

In my unit all the rooms had windows (including bathroom), which means good ventilation and light. I barely heard my neighbors around me too. Thick walls or quiet neighbors, idk?

Gas for cooking was cut off multiple times for months. Very slow to respond to non-emergency issues. They never adequately addressed my roach problem. That very much contributed to my decision to move out.

Be more responsive to tenant issues.
