Typical NYC building
Pros
Super responsive with maintenance requests. Close to subways and trader joes and good bars and restaurants
Cons
Could use some more cleaning
Good for Manhattan?
Pros
Great location albeit on the same street as a fire station so sirens are to be expected. Good water pressure! All the utilities worked well with no issues (w/d, dishwasher, stove, heat).
Cons
Hot water would shut off at random times at least once a month, sometimes at higher frequencies. Trash build up was a bit scary on occasion. The trash bins would fill up and you’d essentially have to just throw your trash into the abyss. Super was difficult to get a hold of. Ceiling leaked and it took the super several days to address it.
Advice to the owners
I didn’t communicate much with the property owner, mainly the super. Address the trash more frequently or perhaps place more trash bins so they don’t overflow.
