Just fine uptown
Pros
Enjoyed the views, the neighbors (for the most part), LOTS of space and natural light, nice laundry room in the basement, always felt safe, good working elevator building
Cons
The commute from the train was ARDUOUS, I was always nervous ordering high value packages, management not the best at being responsive to maintenance requests
Great super, awful owner
Pros
The super is amazing! Extremely helpful, easy to get in touch with, lives in the building, keeps the building as clean as possible, very friendly. Clean building Overall pretty quite Tons of heat in the winter
Cons
The owners are scum. At one point I had bedbugs for over a year bc they refused to get rid of them. They will not get rid of roaches or mice or anything unless you sue them. When they bought the building they tried to evict everyone and even tried to break into residences homes to scare them out. They over price units when the whole building is rent stabilized.
Advice to the owners
Deal with all the infestation and maintenance issues that are never fixed in the building and units!
