Peaceful and well maintained next to the park
Pros
Great building with doorman, package room, gym, etc. Well constructed and maintained. Great rent stabilized unit. Proximity to the train.
Cons
Occasional problematic characters outside. I've heard the units with north facing windows have noise issues. Traffic and street parking is a challenge.
Huge apartment but so many problems
Pros
-Very good sized apartment for the price -Proximity to Prospect Park -Laundry in basement
Cons
-Constant roach problem, especially in the summer. Building only had an exterminator come once a month, and tenants were not aware of when the exterminator would come. -Did not feel secure even with the 24-hr doorman. The front door to the building was always unlocked, and staff never asked visitors to sign in or state their business. Some staff were definitely high on something during their shifts. Also very easy to get into the building through the unsecured garage. -Faulty heat during the winter months -Unresponsive super -Noisy neighbors - lots of banging and loud music-playing
