Mostly fine, some typical city issues

Pros

Great location, lots of space in unit, rent stabilized

Cons

Heavy renovations of empty units the past few years have been loud and presented some pest issues. More like bad timing than poor current management, but lots of issues with the building were uncovered in the past year which created issues in my unit - such as pests and plumbing reconstruction.

Nice old building

Pros

Location is great. Space is very economical in apartment. Doesn't get too cold

Cons

Sweltering heat in the summertime, but thats pre-war buildings for you. Can take a little too long to get fixes done
