Ultimate NYC experience: livable, but not without concessions
Pros
Clean, newly renovated, kind neighbors, great location, safe neighborhood and responsive landlord. Having Pacha Cafe directly next door and Rogers Ave deli just across the street are huge plus points.
Cons
The super was rude, unpleasant, and no-showed to crucial maintenance appointments twice. The neighborhood also gets VERY loud at night. On top of sirens blaring at all times (there's a fire station AND a hospital nearby) people in the neighboring building tend to gather, play music, or throw bbq parties directly in front of this building especially on holidays. There is also a minor German roach infestation? I see one cockroach every week or so in my unit and I have roach traps everywhere. Last but not least there is barely any closet space in the bedroom and you are likely to need your own dresser.
Great building, great management
Pros
Gut renovated, clean, no pests, great place for me to start off living by myself
Cons
Front-facing apartments can be a bit loud with Rogers in the morning.
