Old building, apartments need to be redone
Pros
Great location, good heat
Cons
Dirty and older building
Advice to the owners
Do some renovations
Great, quiet place to live
Pros
Apartments that face the back of the building are very quiet and neighbors can't be heard through the walls (except upstairs neighbors occasionally). The super is amazing, he takes great care of the building. Some of the apartments are updated, some are not. Older apartments have definitely seen better days but are perfectly livable. Big kitchen (by NYC standards) with lots of storage.
Cons
The biggest con is that there is no trash chute, trash has to be discarded into the basement from an opening on the street. Bedrooms are extremely tiny - I recommend sharing a two bedroom apartment with someone you're very close with, since you'll likely be spending a lot of time in the common space.
Advice to the owners
I appreciate their responsiveness and quick turnaround.
