Worst Super, Crumbling

Pros

Cheap rent, though I think they raised our old unit.

Cons

Terrible super who kept animals, neglected them and let them die outside our windows. Body count: 2 dogs?, 6 chickens, 2 rabbits. Mold, roaches, and mice in the walls. Ceiling caves in sometimes. Water pours into rooms. Owner seems to have no idea Ian is incompetent and disgusting. Trash area is a rat infested nightmare.

Advice to the owners

Actually fix major leaks. Putting plaster of it is not enough. One day a bathtub is going to crush a tenant. Floors and walls are rotting. Hope the Hamptons is nice.
