Good, clean for the most part
Pros
No bugs, good building. No bugs, elevators.
Cons
Laundry room can be a mess with busted machines, and garbage room is always overflowing.
Best bang for your buck south of 14th Street
Pros
Perfectly placed in the spectrum from budget to luxury, in downtown NYC which is a luxury area to live by default. You get: high ceilings (it's an old elementary school), tall windows, quiet location (minus the kids yelling for recess at the elementary school across the street), walkability to the best parts of New York: LES (home base) East Village, Chinatown, Little Italy, West Village, SoHo, you can even walk across the Williamsburg Bridge to BK if you have 25 minutes to spare etc... 360 degree rooftop view of Manhattan: Empire State, Chrysler bldg, 1 World Trade... A backyard courtyard that's highly underutilized, washer / dryer in building, 24h security team watching your packages & the lobby, a bike room, an elevator
Cons
- Elevators are slow - Hallways are dirty, there is a bad character on staff who is entangled in legal battles with the super and the security team that management won't fire for some weird reason - Honestly not too much else. The unit got a little cold in the winter but the super helped fix the heaters and it's pretty much good now, except on the coldest days. So you bundle up or get a space heater.
Advice to the owners
Fire the porter who is neglecting the trash rooms, harassing your other employees, and does not know how to work a mop
