Former Tenant
Pros:
Gorgeous, spacious, sun soaked, functional, home. Perfect location - quiet enough, central enough, and the neighborhood has everything you can possibly need - the best food around, reliable doctors/pharmacies, abundant grocery stores, the river & park, tons of public transit. We’ve been here for a few years and this home has grown with us. The apt is massive!
Cons:
Management is generally incompetent and sketchy at times, and will only respond if they absolutely need to. But we’ve never had trouble getting ahold of someone when it absolutely mattered. The occasional cockroach, but nothing out of the realms of ordinary for NY. This building is OLD, but it’s charming and the few maintenance issues we’ve had have been taken care of. Supers come and go every year or two but they all have been lovely and relatively responsive. If you are okay with the above as trade offs for a relatively affordable, massive, centrally located space, this place is absolutely perfect.

Former Tenant
Pros:
the building was cozy, neighborhood is nice
Cons:
the building itself had very unresponsive management, they also raised the rent like crazy, making it totally not worth it for the 1BR i was in
