Very solid apartment

In winter sometimes heat was (c) openigloo nonexistent Layout of apartment not the (c) openigloo best
Pretty good deal for what you get
Former Tenant
Pros:
The price is pretty good (c) openigloo for the ammount of space, (c) openigloo and the tenants in the (c) openigloo building are nice and we (c) openigloo never have package or noise (c) openigloo issues.
Cons:
The response time for issues (c) openigloo is abysmal. It took hours (c) openigloo for response to a serious (c) openigloo ceiling leak. Sometimes the super (c) openigloo won’t even respond. We didn’t (c) openigloo have a working buzzer for (c) openigloo the first three months there (c) openigloo and it took them way (c) openigloo longer than promised to install (c) openigloo the washer which when they (c) openigloo did, broke the dishwasher.

Terrible management, okay apartment
Former Tenant
Pros:
Elevator and private outdoor space
Cons:
Management was awful. Cockroaches all (c) openigloo over. We once got a (c) openigloo notice ConEd was going to (c) openigloo shut off lobby utilities. That’s (c) openigloo how poorly run this building (c) openigloo was. New management didn’t pay (c) openigloo the super and he had (c) openigloo to quit. Took over a (c) openigloo month and a half to (c) openigloo get back the security deposit (c) openigloo back to the point we (c) openigloo had to threaten to notify (c) openigloo the AG and take them (c) openigloo to small claims court. The (c) openigloo “property manager” would not sign (c) openigloo emails with their name, likely (c) openigloo on purpose so you couldn’t (c) openigloo reach them or know who (c) openigloo they were. Just a mess
Advice to owner:
Don’t be property managers.
Great Building and Amazing Community
Former Tenant
Pros:
Strong community, clean, outdoor space, (c) openigloo quiet

118 W 114th St
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to the red line (c) openigloo and central park

The (c) openigloo front door and buzzer frequently (c) openigloo break. The super is forgetful.

Management company changed and fired (c) openigloo the old super, new one (c) openigloo is nice enough and responsive (c) openigloo but the circumstances around the (c) openigloo firing of the old super (c) openigloo were sketchy and most likely (c) openigloo illegal. The building has issues (c) openigloo with garbage disposal and cleanliness (c) openigloo of common areas now.
