Great Building

Pros

- great amenities (rooftop pool anyone?!) - grocery store across the street - great light and windows in each room - nice neighbors and building staff

Cons

- smells like dog pee outside because of all the dogs! - pool only open from MDW to LDW - even if weather is still hot - gym is small / not cleaned well

Deceitful and neglectful management

Pros

Amenity building in lovely Greenpoint about 5 mins from the G. Rooftop pool and wonderful super/building staff.

Cons

Management did not tell us that our unit was underneath the building gym. We have extremely loud banging noises at all hours and they have been a nightmare about it and would not let us move to any other unit in the building. There have been many other problems and they are so unresponsive and have basically ghosted me.
