Artist building, very bushwick

Pros

If you’re a creative/artist/musician, this is definitely the building for you. It’s a very neighborly building and management is responsive.

Cons

It’s noisy at times from the other musicians. But the real con was the break ins from package thieves and random teens trying to smoke weed in the building.

Advice to the owners

Up the security of all of the doors, including the trapdoor on the street, into the basement.
