    Bad Neighbor
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The doorman are really great. There is laundry in the building and a gym which is great to have as well. Additionally, it is pet friendly which is great.
    Cons:
    The rent increase is very high. Upon research found that many units have been illegally brought out of rent stabilization. The walls seem to be very thin. Having an ongoing issue with a neighbor that likes to blast music in the middle of the night. Additionally, it is pet friendly which is only a bad thing when the pet owners are not very respectful of cleaning up after their pets
    Advice to owner:
    Reduce the rent increase and enforce the community standards more.

    Cons:
    Water sometimes runs brown. Lobby always under repairs but don't know for what.

    Cons:
    Elevators weren’t the best!

    This LLC Company is Criminal
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building staff itself is very kind and attentive.
    Cons:
    WARNING DO NOT OVERPAY! This building has illegally destabilized Rent Stabilized units, and now charge upwards of $2300 for studios that are sub-300 square feet. There are still several units in this building that are stabilized, in which tenants pay close to only $400 a month in rent, plus free toiletries, and a cleaning service. Management (AIMCO, now AIR) has no evidence suggesting that renovations were legal, and significant enough to destabilize units.
    Advice to owner:
    Restabilize your previously rent controlled units
