Well maintained old building with excellent management
Former Tenant

Cons:
- The staircase/common stairwell hasn’t been updated in a long time, but it’s honestly fine since most of the building upgrades seem focused on the apartments
- The heat can get very strong on the upper floors, and we’ve had to turn off some radiators
- The buzzer/intercom system is extremely old and hard to hear - it mostly sounds like static

Beautiful area but evil landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
The area is beautiful and the building is as well. They just haven’t taken care of it in many years and it seems to be crumbling apart
Cons:
Nearly everything - filthy hallways, cockroaches, bed bugs, rude management, building is falling apart
Advice to owner:
Stop taking advantage and being a slum lord

Dishonest swindler hiding in nice neighborhood
Former Tenant
Pros:
The neighborhood and the apartment were both very nice. Apt was newly renovated (more on that later).
Cons:
Hearing rats through the wall in the trash area. Just a general prevalence of rats outside. Owner reported costs of 7 different units' improvements listed on building permit as being costs for just a single unit to DHCR to raise rent from $400 to $4000 and invented a tenant to explain why I was not afforded the legally required disclosure with my lease (the tenant who 'received' this disclosure was a personal friend of the owner, uncontactable, never moved in and had a lease that overlapped mine almost entirely.
Advice to owner:
Don't kick tenants out for filing rent overcharge claims....that's illegal, even if you're friends with the DHCR.

I could live here for years.
Former Tenant
Pros:
I've been a long-term tenant in this building. There are no complaints. The landlord is organized. The live-in super is responsive. The building is regularly cleaned. The apartments are priced well and subway is less than a 2 minute walk away. whenever I have friends visit they are in love with the charm of my apartment
Cons:
This is a pre-war building, so no air conditioning and elevator.

Avoid Veltri Buildings!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location is great.
Cons:
Landlord is trash. If you're rent stabilized, you might as well be dead. She could not care less about us!
Advice to owner:
Stop being slimy. Respond to requests for service. Oh, and are you in Spectrum's back pocket? Why else would you not allow alternatives in the building? Clearly getting kickbacks!
