HVAC doesn’t work - extreme interior temperatures

Pros

Gorgeous well proportioned apartments. Reasonable in building gym and rooftop. Super and team are amazing and go out of their way. Building is clean and pest free. Amazing balcony space.

Cons

The hvac absolutely doesn’t work. Neither heating nor cooling. Do not be fooled by the built in units. This review is specifically for 3C, however the issue is pervasive to many units inn the building (confirmed with others who live/d there). Apartment reaches 85+ degrees in summer and into mid 40s in winter. There was literally ice inside the apartment during periods of extreme cold and the landlord ignored texts. The balcony door does not seal and you can feel wind coming through the crack. The floors get very cold all along the perimeter of the building. Cannot in good conscience recommend living here without transparency into these issues. The super and his team are wonderful and available, however they cannot fix this issue.

Advice to the owners

Fix hvac and the peloton accounts for the treadmill
