Location location location

Pros

At 91st and Lex, it's a great spot - close to 86th street station, a stone throw away from Central Park, and super close to 2nd Ave where you have your choice of bars / restaurants. The board is very friendly and competent, and super is also great. It's a really well-run building.

Cons

Small laundry room that bottlenecks on weekends. Creaky floors, if your upstairs neighbor does not put down rugs it will be loud.

Good place to live

Pros

I lived in this building for 3 years and was happy with my experience. Part time door man building which is a great plus. The super was helpful when I had a leak in my ceiling. I never heard the neighbors through the walls or ceiling tho the noise from the hallway would get into the apartment and you could hear what was going on in other peoples apartments in the hallway.

Cons

Would get the occasional bug which stopped once a a dirty neighbor left.
