Move at your own risk

Pros

The building is big and spacious the walls are thick. You won’t be hearing loud music. The Bronx is loaded with third world people. You don’t feel like you live in a modern world.

Cons

The building provides poor heat, there was mold in the apartment, a repulsive smell coming from the bathroom pipe. The tenants don’t know how to recycle the garbage. The building is infested with cockroaches and get through the door.

Infestation

Pros

There are no Pros about this building

Cons

Complete infestation in this building, mice, roaches and bedbugs. The elevator doesn’t always work. There are exposed wires in the hallway and the entire building has a rotten smell. It’s an unsafe living condition

Advice to the owners

Fix the infestation!! Apartment 10T needs a lot of work! The elderly shouldn’t have to live like this
