overall a great space and good place to live
Pros
Large space, recently redone, haven’t had big pest issues (knock on wood). It’s also quiet with relatively thick walls. Trash and recycling removal is regular.
Cons
Cold in winter and lack of heat control. Water takes a long time to get hot and often pressure varies. A/C situation requires window units that don’t always do the job in summer. Typical problems of an older building
Don’t live here
Pros
Very few if any
Cons
The building owners and especially the super are horrible. Unresponsive, rude, and unwilling to help with or fix any problems. They will insist there is no problem to avoid spending any money on repairs. Be warned that you can hear the subway from even the top floor apartments. The super is extremely extremely rude. He will make you feel uncomfortable if you are alone in the apartment with him. The building owners hide behind him to avoid dealing with anything.
Advice to the owners
Get a new super. Fix your problems.
