Some tenants find the buildings affordable and appreciate pest control efforts.

Rent Law Violator

Pros

Location on Lower East Side Proximity to subway, restaurants, grocery, etc.

Cons

Building owner has "warehoused" apartments and illegally raised the rent of rent-stabilized units to remove them from rent stabilization. One tenant says landlord illegally sent inspector into his apartment to take photos

Advice to the owners

Stop breaking the law

Former tenant·1 month ago

Horrible owner, rent scandal

Pros

Lobby has been remodeled and finally a front door buzzer has been installed

Cons

the walls in the hall outside the apartment on each floor need to be refinished and repainted No more lying and sending someone in to photograph the inside of an apartment claiming it’s a routine city-required inspection. Don’t raise the rent of rent stabilized apartment by 280% for a new tenant
