Fabulous Building !
Pros
Super is an actual angel, so kind and responsive Building is beautiful and has a lovely little courtyard area Very quiet, set back from the road Landlord was very kind and worked with us through some issues we had
Cons
Virtual Doorman was not working our whole time living there
Okay for people who just need a basic living space
Pros
The interior of the units were generally renovated. My unit had in-unit laundry, dishwasher, and stainless steel appliances. Rooms were generally a decent size compared to what you usually see in other NYC apartments. The apartment also has rent stabilized units.
Cons
The building has a cockroach problem and you will see them in the stairwell often in the summer. The roaches sometimes sometimes make their way into the units too. They market the apartment as having a new app-controlled intercom system but it doesn’t work and it doesn’t seem like it will be fixed any time soon. Overall, it doesn’t seem like management cares to make any renovations to the apartment common areas or the exterior which makes it unappealing compared to the other apartment buildings in the area.
Advice to the owners
Please fix the intercom system!!! And deal with the cockroaches. Also renovate the stairways/lobbies because they don’t incentivize any new tenants to want to move in on top of the other issues that I’ve already mentioned.
