Mismanagement / Flooding
Pros
nice apartments in a great location. most if not all units are rent controlled since the building receives a 421a tax break. They will not disclose this when you move in though. Large windows and great soundproofing, we never hear our neighbors.
Cons
I’d avoid renting the bottom units as they flood during every big rain. Management also offered only $100 as a solution. We also had an active leak in the hallway for several weeks and they didn’t fix with any urgency. Have heard multiple management horror stories from other tenants.
Advice to the owners
Landlord is really the main con of this building.
Could be better
Pros
Nice enough area. Great outdoor private spaces available. Rooftop for all.
Cons
No elevator. Very high electricity bill
