    Great pre-war building in the heights
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Responsive and caring super
    Communicative management representative in building
    Large Rooms
    Lots of light
    Cons:
    Laundry doesn't work consistently
    Along noisy street with many block offs/shutdowns when there are events
    Over 2 years ago
    Mice but nice
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Super is nice
    Cons:
    Packages constantly got stolen
    Buzzer is located outside so a lot of ding ding ditch
    Laundry room is very inconveniently located through a courtyard with rats and a very rickety staircase that limits accessibility
    Dirty and noisy hallways
    Mice the super could not help with after 4 months - spent hundreds of my own dollars on this
    Insane courtyard noise - seemed like people were battling who could blast their music louder
    Street noise was insane - between passersby and a school that has construction starting at 9pm
    Property is managed by a very “legal” team, giving the impression that it is very well managed when it is not.

    My rent is also listed on streeteasy for a lot more than I actually paid - $500 more a month.
    Advice to owner:
    Update laundry
    Take care of mice
    Install cameras with live feed anyone can access for packages
    Move bell to inner hallway

    Nothing Impressive, Just Old
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nothing much reallyd
    Cons:
    Walls are falling apart
    Advice to owner:
    Clean building more often. The floors are never cleaned. The walls need painting.
    Over 3 years ago
    So far so good
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Responsive on site super, quiet neighbors (mostly), quick access to subway, laundry on site.
    Cons:
    Appliances could use some updating.
    Advice to owner:
    Update appliances more regularly
    Over 3 years ago
    Great Location and Super
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location is great: right next to A express and bus stops. Grocery store, restaurants, bodegas nearby.

    Super is very responsive. Handles repairs quickly, keeps building clean, sometimes even texts a heads up if you have a package in the lobby.
    Cons:
    Building management is not flexible or accommodating, but as long as you pay rent on time, you shouldn’t have much reason to interact with them.

    Laundry in basement only takes quarters, not card.
