Solid Building but Shows its Age
Pros
Apts are rent-stabilized and huge Friendly, responsive super Management is legit although sometimes slow to fix things Most neighbors are nice; many have been in the building for years
Cons
Building is old: front door lock breaks every few months and there are plumbing issues on occasion. Pest control definitely an issue—we’ve dealt with roaches and mice. Apartment layout varies greatly—3-bedroom has a tiny kitchen to share with 3 people while smaller apts have plenty of kitchen space
Advice to the owners
Invest in proper building updates instead of putting a bandaid on the issues that come up
There Will Be Mice
Pros
Like that it's near prospect park, botanical gardens and the Brooklyn museum.
Cons
Can get pretty dirty and there will be mice. Best to plug all hole with aromatics that vermin don't like than put steel wool over that packed TIGHT!
Advice to the owners
Invest in an exterminator
