didn't like building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Really pretty building from the 1930's. Located right across the street from Shore Road, so nice to run or walk along there.
Cons:
The super is awful, won't fix anything unless you give him money. Very lazy won't answer his cell messages. Management is nasty and rude to owners and renters.
Advice to owner:
Get a new super, fix the heat old radiators give off little heat. Plumbing needs to be redone, new furnaces everything.

Awful management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quiet enclave of Bay Ridge - nice neighbors in the building.
Cons:
Withholds heat - random construction at all hours - management utterly unresponsive - serious pest control issues
Advice to owner:
Someone (other than the contractors your hire) needs to understand what's happening with construction in the building and notify owners/tenants. Pest control really needs to be taken in hand. You have good people in your building and it seems you are trying all of our patience. Good owners/tenants are not a dime a dozen.
