best building staff in the city!
Former Tenant
Pros:
-WONDERFUL doormen, very responsive super -location (to waterfront, restaurants, etc) -big windows/lots of light in apt -relatively decent soundproofing (noise only an issue after our neighbor got a drum set) -during Dec the building decorates for the holidays and really goes all out, very adorable. -building staff very COVID conscious & responsible in communal spaces (extra cleanings, enhanced gym use procedure, signs for wearing masks in elevator/public areas, etc)
Cons:
-kitchen layout makes it hard for couples to cook together regularly-not much counter space. -inefficient design of space leading to less storage (building/design flaw) ex: water heater could be in closet w the W/D and then we’d have an extra closet to use. instead we have tiny left over space in both closets that doesn’t really fit anything. -outlets in living room & bedroom aren’t in most convenient places, need to use extension cords. -neighbors (occasionally) let their dogs poo on the roof AND dont pick it up. so gross.
Advice to owner:
Give tenants option to pay rent digitally through existing building link website-mailing a check each month is antiquated. Fix the pool table in rec room (was broken entire 2 yrs we lived there). Esp post COVID, if you want tenants to resign their lease, offer them the price you’re going to list the apartment for if it’s lower than what they’ve been paying. Give your doormen/super/cleaning crew a raise, they are hands down the best part of this building and made it an enjoyable place to live.

Former Tenant
Pros:
Amazing staff. Best doorman and best super.
Cons:
Be ready to have your lease go up yearly to the maximum allowed by law. No negotiation ever, not even through a pandemic. In March 2020 the management company called the tenants to let us know that they would let us skip one month rent –because of the situation– which we would then have to start paying starting three months later and until our lease was due. So exactly no help at all. Then they were not understanding or helpful when we had to break our lease due to economic stress caused by Covid19 and expected us to pay through the end of the lease, even though they were able to rent out the apartment a few weeks after we left.
Advice to owner:
Be more lenient towards tenants during these difficult times. Have a heart.
