Don't Rent Here!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nothing good to say.
Cons:
Mold, Noise, Elevators Don't Work, Patio Grills Outside Windows = Exposure to carcinogens, Con Ed meters in apartment (24 in a giant closet inside my unit), which exposed me to radiation, drafts, structural damage, unresponsive management, incorrect leases, bilk tenants for everything.
Advice to owner:
Get your act together! You were found guilty of providing an inhabitable apartment by Law Enforcement Bureau of New York, yet you REFUSE to remedy by providing a reasonable accommodation. That kind of behavior is actionable.

Don't Live Here
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location is convenient to subways, concierge team is great.
Cons:
Location is annoying (So many tourists), management is non-existent (good luck talking to anyone above the building level), horrible leasing office staff, remodel is cheap, elevators NEVER work, lights shut off in the library every 15 minutes
Advice to owner:
Make yourselves available by phone, fix things in a timely manner and fix them well instead of just painting over problems (news flash - the pain just bubbles, flakes off, and look crappy as soon as you leave)

Spend the money to fix the elevators and update the software

Great building, awful management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great building, amenities, neighbors, doormen, concierge.
Cons:
Management lies and only cares about taking all your money. They are sneaky and will rent you an apartment that has serious issues that affect standard of living and hope you don’t notice. Then when you notice and complain, they pretend to fix it and go through the motions to try to sweep it under the rug, forcing you to keep pushing and pushing to get anything done. They are immoral and will intentionally deceive you.
Advice to owner:
Don’t lie, be sneaky, deceive.
