Former Tenant
Pros:
The only good thing about the apartment are the high ceilings.
Cons:
It's an old building with old building problems. The super takes months to fix any problems and when he does, it's with cheap materials and some guys he finds off the street. The building manager is a creep, he's a pinstripe suit away from looking like a goon, completely useless. Most of the neighbors are nice people but there's a handful that are just the lowest of the low. They trash the building common areas are well as the sidewalks, play loud repetitive music at odd hours, and leave cigarette buds all over the stairs.
Advice to owner:
I wish problems got fixed instead of being downplayed and delayed.
