Nice Building With Flaws
Pros
Apartments are big. Lots of storage. Common areas are good and well kept. Overall good neighborhood. Good proximity to subway.
Cons
Noise transference to above and below apartments is an ongoing problem. Neighbors are really a mixed bag. You could have a super-friendly family or could end up next to a tyrant who tries to drive you (+ your kids if you have them) out the building. The board are nice but toothless in these situations. Management company will send a letter but that's it.
Advice to the owners
Protect young families
Thin Squeaky Floors
Pros
The heat and hot water are outstanding. The building is clean, the elevator is new and fast.
Cons
The floors squeak and creek like nothing I have ever experienced before. Even if you tiptoe around in bare feet, you are making too much noise.
Advice to the owners
Fix the floors
