Looks can be deceiving
Pros
Pet friendly, large apartments with great views, quick action from maintenance staff
Cons
Poor management (Feil), many broken appliances/apartment issues upon moving in, lost packages, broad mix of tenants, split between the very old rent stabilized and the much younger families
Advice to the owners
Respond to your tenants who flag problems
Big building, efficient and responsive management
Pros
Lobby area was always clean. Staff is helpful. Big storage area for packages.
Cons
The tenant of the apartment I was subleasing from was taking advantage of people and keeping their security deposits. But this isn’t a reflection on the building itself.
