Unnecessary doors galore
Former Tenant
Pros:
Cheapish rent, laundry in unit, buzzer works.
Cons:
In 2019 they forced everyone to comply with some stupid order to add an extra door to every single apartment unit, resulting in a useless vestibule that’s no longer private and a waste of about 9 square feet of the already tiny apartment.
Advice to owner:
I have no advice. Whoever told you to waste thousands adding all those extra doors is laughing to the bank.
