Well maintained old building with excellent management
Pros
Great appliances and well-functioning kitchen setup Huge windows that bring in tons of natural light Good water pressure and reliable plumbing Well-maintained prewar charm with clean common areas Quiet block close to Central Park Never had anything stolen from the lobby
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
Quiet residential building
Pros
Convenient location, clean and well taken care of building, friendly neighbors
Cons
Central heating is hard to control, no elevator, walk up building
