Wouldn’t live there again
Pros
Was extremely close to where I worked, and had many grocery stores nearby (Food Bazaar, Bravo, Food Basket). There is a citibike dock that’s filled in the morning right outside. That’s where it ends.
Cons
Building decaying….water leaks everytime it rains, heaters not working in freezing weather but cranked up all the way in summer making apartment over 100° and management doesn’t respond to fix it. Utility bills skyrocket above $250 a month. The stairs are literally crumbling and hallways smell like smoke. The street outside is super loud, and the trains nearby are not good unless you work in midtown.
Advice to the owners
Invest in the building or sell it
Mostly Happy Tenants
Pros
Everything functional, good water pressure, close to needs like grocery, laundry, etc.
Cons
Hosted mice unknowingly for a short time but the landlord fixed it as soon as we noted it.
