    Former Tenant

    Cons:

    $$$ Building with character & good location
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Unique floor plans, very friendly attentive doormen, courtyard has trees for nicer windows views
    Cons:
    Very noisy because of bridge traffic & truck honking

    While super is very good & handles MOST things there were some basic things that I know friend’s supers have helped with (where you just throw tip) where here they will not do and/or charge you $$ to do & that was surprising to learn
    Advice to owner:
    None
