personal, helpful management and amazing value
Pros
An extremely convenient location, almost equidistant from the A and 1 trains and within a 5 minute walk of Ft. Tryon Park. Kind, personal, prompt management--the owner also does the repairs, so there's no middle-man, though he has staff--who care about taking care of tenants. Fairly small building, and tenants keep mostly to themselves. Honestly, I had a wonderful time with Jan and 114, and I'm almost sad to leave.
Cons
It is an old building, and the stairwell can feel a bit grungy sometimes. By NYC standards, it's not too bad, but certainly it could use a good powerwash and a coat of paint. Not much of a backyard.
Advice to the owners
Clean/paint the stairwell and put in new lighting! It'll make the building feel as great as the apartments already do.
If you’re ok with a maintenance-less building, this place is for you
Pros
Rent is moderately cheap
Cons
You get what you pay for. No elevator, old smelly hallways. This place gets ZERO maintenance. Place can go weeks without a clean mopping. Super is a 100 year old polish man who speaks NO English. No upkeep at all inside apts. old appliances, old tub with weak flooring that cracks as you walk. Like I said, you get what you pay for.
Advice to the owners
Show this building some love. This could be a diamond in a rough but you blatantly Igor e this building and invest $0 in upkeeping it.
