Rent at your own peril
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is tucked away in a quiet corner of Midtown East. The parks are very nice and the many bodegas within Tudor City are convenient. It's a slice of (cheaper) Gramercy in the middle of Manhattan.
Cons:
The building is old and in need of serious upgrades/repairs. I can't even count the number of times I found a live roach in my bathroom. I also saw multiple mice in my apartment. On top of that, management is absolutely awful and they nickel and dime you on everything. I ended up moving out because the unit above me would not stop banging on the floor at all hours of the day and night and also smoked incessantly. This is supposed to be a non-smoking building.

Affordable Full Service Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is over 100 years old. Solid plaster walls so sound doesn’t travel. Doorman are attentive to residents 24 hrs a day. Rents are fair for the area and building.
Cons:
Management can be hard to get a hold of at times. They are sometimes slow to attend to requests if not urgent. Due to the building’s age, there tends to be a lot of emergency fixes. Heat isn’t super powerful in the winter.

Nice neighborhood with dedicated drive way and parks, no through traffic. Close to Grand Central.
Cons:
Old building, some units has old flimsy windows. Some buildings rules are obsolete. Some maintenance staff is very rude and show their attitude when you try to make any request regarding your unit maintenance or building amenities.

Not good Management
Former Tenant
Pros:
The price. Close to my office.
Cons:
I moved in the end of last year.
First of all, there are lots of outdated rules. I don’t like their move-in restrictions. There are move in and move out fee they collect with money order. Who use money order these days. Can’t move in ANY furniture in certain time and weekend. Not even a box.

Second, the doorman is not flexible at all. (Not all of them. Some guys are very kind and nice)
Some guys are very rude. Plus the package room is closed a lot of time even if in the operation hours.
If you order lots from Amazon, this problem bothers you.

Lastly, the building is old. Thin walls, water quality, frequent water/laundry-room fix.
I use Brita to filter water, and sometimes I taste strange.. I haven’t had this problem with other NYC buildings. Probably old pipes. There were days that they stopped water and fix something for almost whole day(9-6). I’ve been here only few months and had the fix at least 3 times.

Yes this is a co-op and old building, and also the price dropped. But if I knew those from first, I wouldn’t have moved in.
Advice to owner:
Need to work on the issues above.
