Pros and Cons
Pros
Gorgeous pre-war character, some really great neighbors in the building and on the street. Spacious and lots to do in the neighborhood. Property management co typically resolves issues within 3-5 days. Super is very responsive, but he is useless and can’t fix anything himself.
Cons
There is one man that lives in the building that brings in items from th street almost daily and puts them in the front hallway. He also steals packages. The boiler has gone out on multiple occasions leaving all tenants with no heat or hot water for up to 48hrs. The building is across from a school and traffic is very loud on school days.
Fun when you are 21 and then like living in squalor
Pros
The building is cool, neighbors are nice, neighborhood is great
Cons
Mice, roaches, heating cost hundreds of dollars and sometimes does not work. Was left without water for 5 days once because management didn’t answer . When I left everything was covered in a layer of dirt and mold.
