    Do not recommend
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    There’s only 4 apartments
    Cons:
    Located right next door to extremely nosey neighbors everyday is a block party with them
    Sometimes they block the entrance

    Pest control barely shows up

    Building super comes in without permission and then gets upset when you call him out for it
    Advice to owner:
    Show some compassion and actually manage the property
    We shouldn’t have to beg you to clean up mold found in the building
    Over 2 years ago

    I love this building but the management and landlords are so shady
    Former Tenant

    Prewar, sturdy, pretty apartment with high ceilings in historic black neighborhood
    Cons:
    Management and landlords are shady as hell and generally actually terrible

    appreciate your good tenants and stop terrorizing them
    Over 3 years ago

    Over 3 years ago
    Nightmare Building+Roommates
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Cheap, near the grocery store and subway
    Cons:
    They put a mentally ill woman into the third bedroom, who creeped me out immediately and created nothing but weird drama starting the day she showed up, and her obvious mental problems drove me out of my home within two months of her arrival AND in the middle of a pandemic (I moved into a one bedroom on the UWS, so it was all for the best, but still.) Building was of no help, wouldn’t reply to about 10 emails I sent, then months after I MOVED OUT they had the nerve to message me and ask where the rent was. What gall.
    Advice to owner:
    Try replying to emails when your tenants send you one, (*cough* Ava *cough*). And you can hear some kind of animals scurrying through the walls, maybe do something about that too.
