    Needs some basic quality of living upgrades, overall a nice place to live
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Beautiful pre-war building
    Nice neighbors
    Quiet
    Cons:
    Run down bathrooms and kitchen with cheap acrylic tubs and low quality toilets
    Leaks
    Heat is spotty and it can be far too cold on winter days
    windows are damaged
    super will eventually help if you push constantly
    Advice to owner:
    Such a good building - don't ignore the basics or you will lose good tenants that expect a bathroom and kitchen that isn't fitted so cheaply it cant be cleaned, address rodent complaints, replace windows that are allowing heat to escape, clean the halls regularly, consider investing in a small laundry room. Seriously-you're ignoring the basics and will lose quality tenants who won't put up with it no matter how much they love the other features of this otherwise great spot.

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The neighbors are awesome
    Cons:
    The trash system is ineffective and creates pest issues
    Advice to owner:
    Don't just spray for pest control wash and clean the building
