    1270 as a Renter
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The staff at 1270 are phenomenal. The security officers/doormen are all incredibly kind and effective at their work. The package pick up/drop off system is efficient and well-organized. The super and his team keep the building in good order, and respond immediately to work requests. Most of our neighbors are very kind and the location is great.
    Cons:
    You have to pay a $200 fee every time you renew your sublease, which is annoying. Most tenants own their units in the building so there is a lot of remodeling/construction and the Board is not effective at remedying noise complaints - not a problem if you work during the day, but impossible to live with if you work from home. Walls are pretty thick but very loud noises (drilling, hammering) will travel.
    Advice to owner:
    The construction noise can be unbearable. Soundproofing should be required in the hallways and walls of the units being remodeled to improve the quality of life for other tenants in the building.

    Central Park apartment
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Doorman lobby with package storage. Staff is lovely. If facing the park you have a lovely view of Central Park.
    Cons:
    Ugly facade with mismatched bricks a lot of the interior decor does not make sense.
