Move at your own risk

Pros

The building is big and spacious the walls are thick. You won’t be hearing loud music. The Bronx is loaded with third world people. You don’t feel like you live in a modern world.

Cons

The building provides poor heat, there was mold in the apartment, a repulsive smell coming from the bathroom pipe. The tenants don’t know how to recycle the garbage. The building is infested with cockroaches and get through the door.
