2 sunny years in Sunnyside
Pros
big vintage entry/foyer area, packages were secure and rarely stolen, front door buzzer always worked, nice neighborly vibe, super lived in an apartment on the 1st floor and was usually around, great location with everything needed nearby, easy bus access to Brooklyn, quieter area with lots of families a couple minutes walk from the 7 train, right near Bolivian Llama Party (best food in nyc), and there's a great family bakery downstairs.
Cons
trash was often overflowing out front which meant flies all around the front steps, could always hear the upstairs neighbors clearly and less frequently might hear the neighbors on either side, there was an occasional roach (once is still too many 🤢), I had no mice problems in my own apartment but all winter you can hear them running inside the walls and ceilings, stairs were extremely slippery marble and the bottom step was broken for the entire time I lived here, frankly the rent was just way too much for this neighborhood especially without any building amenities.
Advice to the owners
if you have a great super that your tenants all know and love, don't fire him. also stop raising the rent by over $100 per year with no improvements in the building or units.
