DO NOT LIVE IN THE BASEMENT UNIT
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building manager and super are really good people and make their best effort. The walls are a nice warm gray instead of the usual beige.
Cons:
It took them six months to fix lights that were broken already when we moved in. The gate to go down to the basement unit got jammed shut and it took them 2 months to fix it, during which time had to climb over the garbage cans to get in or out of our apartment. The basement unit is not known to the post office and we frequently had mail and packages that we had to go pick up because they wouldn't deliver it for this reason. The back bedroom is right next to the building's boiler room so it is excessively hot 365 days of the year, and the window is too small for almost any window air conditioner, and having the window open means you can hear every little thing that is going on in the back alley and cigarette smoke comes into the window. We keep our apartment pretty clean but still there are tons of roaches including in the common areas of the building. Signed up for the pest control service but they never came. There are several cracks in the ceilings and walls.
Advice to owner:
This apartment is not worth $2,500 a month let alone $3,295. It is not suitable as a two bedroom, maybe a one bedroom with a home office. Add bars to the windows and do something about the roaches.

A decent place to live
Former Tenant

Super close to the A/C line. Up to date appliances. Management got better towards the end

Our first super was horrible. The apartment on the 5th floor had a flooding issue. Unreliable boiler. Sketchy area at night
Advice to owner:
Get competent supers

Don't expect repairs
Former Tenant
Pros:
Renovated building and unit
In unit washer/dryer, dishwasher
Located 1 min to w103 BC subway station and Central Park
Whole foods is 7 min walk
Cons:
Getting anything repaired is a nightmare - bathroom ceiling has been moldy for 4 months due to upstairs leak/no vent.
Office staff is rude and has outdated contacts, repair website is ignored, calls and emails are met with excuses and/or ignored.

Heating pipes bang obnoxiously and spray oily water

Apartment is small and has little light in common area
Advice to owner:
Stop acting like a slumlord
