this place sucks, could be worse i guess
Former Tenant
Pros:
we have an elevator
Cons:
the elevator breaks at least 3 times a year (this is being extremely generous, i've been here for about 10 yrs and at one point they broke once a month)
it'll stay that way for anywhere from 2 days to 2+ weeks
hot water randomly disappears
can get very cold in the winter when they randomly decide not to turn on the heat
there was once a fire in an apartment below and my entire floor including all of my apartment smelled like smoke
you could also see the smoke in the air with your own eyes
we never heard anything about it from the super or owners, just from a neighbor
roaches. lots of roaches.
no mice tho!
crackheads will routinely sneak into the building and do drugs on the stairs
i've personally had the pleasure of witnessing a lady shoot heroin into her thigh with her pants off as i was walking down the stairs
(at least she said sorry though!)
i've also gotten to practice my olympic vaulting technique when i jumped over a passed out crackhead who was blocking the exit on the stairs near the first floor
glass windows in the lobby are broken at least 3-4 times a year, likely by the crackheads that sneak in
great stuff
Advice to owner:
it doesn't matter, they don't care
