lofty and modern with downsides
Pros
- large windows, lots of sunlight - outdoor space (roof) - relatively quiet; 2 units per floor, concrete floors, no real shared walls - modern-ish / newer appliances - close to transport + bodegas + nightlife
Cons
- off broadway - package thefts, people would come in and steal things from vestibule - bad trash management - horrible doors / locks - weak water pressure - no closets - basically a studio with walls
Extremely loud construction
Pros
Rooftop access, backyard, artful
Cons
Unfinished bathroom no caulking, bowed shelf in kitchen, kitchen cabinets too high and useless, no closets, backyard over grown I paid to have it cleaned, vacant apartments left unlocked, building junk piled in basement and in open apartments. Building construction is ongoing and extremely loud without warning. Jackhammering through the concrete floor in the apartment adjacent to mine for days. I had to leave the property because it was so loud I couldn’t function.
Advice to the owners
Let tenants know when construction will disrupt life.
