Pretty good building, amazing superintendent
Pros
Great location next to Fulton Center station Live-in super that is always responsive Clean Trash taken up daily
Cons
Water pressure a bit high Some units dont have windows in living room/kitchen/bathroom Street can be noisy at night
Hardly worth the money
Pros
most of the things outside of it: transit access, this low in FiDi is generally quiet outside of EMS, laundry in-building is definitely a pro (more cons, however), high ceilings, good lighting in varied units (higher floors)
Cons
Continued AI streeteasy renderings are really alarming in an age of higher than ever rents and this building and its ownership especially not living up to the prices that they charge. Many issues from 8-10 years ago documented on this building are still present, most recently the largest elevator in the building going down (1 of 2) after repeated non-union jobs to fix it after the past few years of tenancy here. All tenants have been evicted from a secure mail room (which we were given a key for initially, but is now useless except to hike up the stairs when elevators are down). Mail is left unorganized and easily up for taking in the lobby. Building serviced by a newer, much ruder cleaner than his former who speaks condescendingly to tenants, misplaces mail/rips off mailers, refuses to separate recycling properly (its his job?) or properly participate in composting. 311 has been notified about this. Water pressure environmentally sensitive (temperature) + scam-Hercules machines.
Advice to the owners
actually speak to your tenants - everyone here is a grown adult and deserves the right to know how long something may be down and not be in a constant guessing game until something breaks. rent is far too high for the quality of building and issues that tenants are facing, which is clearly a much largely symptom of financial mismanagement. in a heads down culture this benefits the building ownership which has probably never felt a sustained pressure for real quality of life improvements.
