Brown hot water
Former Tenant
Pros:
Elevator, good sized apartments
Cons:
I had a constant issue with the hot water being completely brown in this building. I lived in two units and both had the same issue. The building would not give me a rent concession while the issue persisted (the issue was never resolved)

Condescending Super Pretty Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Pretty common areas, except for floor hallways.
Cons:
The Super was annoying to work with. He would deny issues existed. Our freezer would have sheets of ice at the bottom and eventually leak all over the floor. He refused to fix it/replace it. And said it’s something we should deal with.

Lipstick on a pig
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building looks amazing at first pass through (but it’s not) and the location is great.
Cons:
Terrible terrible terrible management. I’ve been in nyc over a decade, worst building I’ve lived in! Barely clean. They try to sneak in charges all the time. The landlord is truly a bad person, nickel and dimes. Takes weeks for management to respond. I had to call a lawyer to email them to fix my broken heat! Highly recommend literally anywhere else.
