Residents face severe pest problems, including rodents and roaches, with negligent management exacerbating the situation.

Pros:
HUGE, sunny apartments. Some (but not all) apartments have renovated kitchens with dishwashers. Affordable rent (and rent stabilized!), great location with easy access into Manhattan.
Cons:
We loved this apartment but after 4 years we made the hard choice to give up our huge, affordable rent stabilized apartment due to the pest situation and the horrible management. This building has a BAD roach infestation and the basement (where the garbage & laundry are located) has rats running around. When we first moved in, we felt like we found a gem - and it was for a little while. Unfortunately, within the first year, we watched the building decline due to negligence from the management. They stopped making simple repairs throughout the building and they let the roach infestation take over. It’s so bad - we even witnessed roaches coming out of electoral outlets! Towards the end, the rat infestation in the basement got out of control - it was so bad that we stopped using the laundry machines. Several other tenants also reached out to 311 to complain about the rats to no avail. Also, the building refused to do any timely repairs. There’s 100 units and two elevators, but they both regularly were out of order. At one point during our time there, only ONE elevator was in service for over a year. There were also SEVERAL incidents where the main entrance lock stopped working, which allowed anyone to come in. Packages were stolen several times because of this. Lastly, good luck contacting management. It seems like they only have one woman who works in their office and she usually takes at least a week to get back to you (if you’re lucky) and when she does, she’s not even helpful. Such a shame, this building has amazing potential but the owners just don’t care.
Advice to owner:
Be more responsive to tenants. Do better.
