Not the best but worth the price
Former Tenant
Pros:
Affordable & rent stabilized.
Friendly neighbors.
Large roof.
Large apartments.
Location.
Cons:
Management & maintenance responsiveness and ability to fix issues.
Heat breaks often.
Garbage is piled in the elevator to take down to the curb and often takes up ¾ of the elevator instead of doing 1 floor at a time.
Elevator breaks for a day every months or two.
Advice to owner:
Be better about communicating. The tenants never know what’s going on

Rent stabilized, good place to stay
Former Tenant
Pros:
Interesting and more mature neighbors. Didn’t have any issues with leaks or bugs.
Cons:
The maintenance is so bad. Gotta call 311 for anything to get done. The heating and ac units don’t work all the time and the heating bill is so expensive.
