    Building Falling to Pieces
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious, beautiful views of Ditmas park, big closets, new(ish) kitchen, mostly great neighbors
    Cons:
    Lead paint, rats and mice inside and outside. Thin walls, can hear people throughout the building, slow maintenance repairs, water damage and mildewy bathroom, roaches and one really crazy tenant
    Advice to owner:
    Full scale renovation is needed. Make actual repairs, don’t just paint over issues.
