It's nice
Former Tenant
Pros:
- The garbage dump is behind the building which is nice
- The water pressure is good
- The rooms are small, but definitely liveable
- Super is responsive
Cons:
- The halls can be dirty and ill lit
- For some reason the windows to the halls are opened and not closable so things fly in
Advice to owner:
close the windows in the stairways

Low-maintinence, decent place to live
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location, nice neighbors, responsive management. If you get a renovated apartment, you’re set
Cons:
While the neighbors in the building are nice, the rest of the neighborhood is a fan of fireworks all summer.
