Very Solid Building

Pros

Incredible subway access. Fairly clean and well kept. Very nice finishes. In unit washer dryer. Responsive and kind management company. Affordable. Quiet (At least my unit was)

Cons

Chinatown, local homeless / druggy population. Front door is a little loose so can be security issues at times. No finished roof.

Advice to the owners

Nothing really other than securing the front door more properly. Otherwise you guys are doing a great job.
