DO NOT LIVE HERE
Former Tenant
Pros:
Central location close to LIRR and AC lines
Cons:
The entire building is infested with roaches, centipedes and other insects. Trash is regularly dumped all over the street and the ally behind the building is a disgusting mess with people loudly partying at all hours.
Advice to owner:
Demolish the building .

Avoid at all costs
Former Tenant
Pros:
Started out as affordable until rent increased by $500 in 1 year then another $300 the year after
Cons:
Extremely high rent increases. Severe roach infestation despite hiring my own exterminator after monthly useless exterminator visits. Do not deal with dangerous and violent tenants who impact the safety of others. Never manage the garbage and waste outside. Took months to repair a fridge leading to loss of hundreds of dollars of food.
