very little soundproofing

Pros

pretty clean, nice and quiet wall ac, high cielings

Cons

very loud, no soundproofing. thin walls and ceilings, drafty windows

Former tenant·5 months ago

Co-managed building - avoid at ALL costs

Pros

Genuinely don't know if there are any. Pay a little more and move somewhere better

Cons

You're not in the nice part of Bushwick: the neighborhood is filthy and people in the area have absolutely no respect for their neighborhood (trash/litter/dog shit everywhere). There are five active DOB Class I violations on the building, property manager is completely unresponsive, laundry under a DOB cease use order for three years (but still advertised on the basis that it works). I could go on and on
