Pros: laundry room was clean, tenants are nice and have a whatsapp groupchat to help each other with mail/issues/etc Cons: I left this apartment within the same week I moved in. You can check HPD's website for records--this building has more complaints and active violations than any building I have ever lived in or toured in nyc. There is a cockroach infestation that was reported back in the summer of this year, and it was still severe when I moved in. The landlord covers his bases legally (so that you can't break the lease) by sending an exterminator to your unit if you ask for it, but they just spray the floor and give you sticky traps, which will obviously not treat a severe building-wide infestation. The exterminator also told me directly that the roaches are likely worsened by the carpet rugs in the hallways, but they were never removed. There were roaches, alive, found in my unit (one in the fridge!), in the halls, in the elevator, and I confirmed with tenants on multiple floors that they also had bug issues in their respective units. I also saw an HPD report about mice, but didn't see any myself. Beyond that (though maybe they would have fixed them, I didn't stay long enough to find out), my unit had electrical issues (all the lights flickered when you used any outlet), a broken balcony doorknob, and the front door was loose in the doorframe/let out the heat. The super came once and told me his back hurt too much to do anything that day, so... It was seriously bad here and not worth whatever good deal you think you might be getting. The landlord's name is Jacob Sacks--google him and be advised.

Pros: good amenities, no noise from neighbors Cons: packages constantly stolen, mail not delivered properly, lots of issues with water damage and pests that don't get fixed well. Advice to landlord: dont just put bandaids on water damage. Clean balconies and get something to keep pigeon away.

Pros: Clean, well kept building. Nice views, great location. Cons: The landlords are borderline negligent. They ignored our requests to fix many different issues in our apartment many times. Even when they did send someone it would be at weird hours and they would never alert us when they were coming. Huge mold problem that went unattended, so we moved out. Advice to landlord: Do better, people are trying to live.

Pros: It has a roof. Cons: Constant jackhammering starting at 8am, warped floorboards throughout, unresponsive management, 1br apartments constructed into shoebox 3br units. Appliances are junk, in-unit washer and dryer are constantly broken and rarely work when they are functional. Advice to landlord: I believe the property owner should not be allowed to own property anymore

Pros: Rooftop Location to L train Updated appliances Cons: 3 bedroom apt - the third bedroom is really not a bedroom (no window to outside just to your roommates room) No closets at all
