Pros: The building is very close to Prospect Park and is also around the corner from the Q subway station. Cons: Let me start off by saying that I pay my rent on time every month. I am a great tenant who is quiet, clean, and responsible. Which that being said, where do I begin? We have “cameras” in the building, yet packages are constantly being stolen because they don’t work and people prop the door open. Oh, and the VERMIN are out of control! There are rat holes all over the front yard and they have easy access to the basement because there aren’t any real windows—just holes that they climb through. The only way to describe them is that they frolic, yes FROLIC in the yard and around the garbage. Good luck taking your trash out at night; you’re liable to loose a limb because they’re so loud and aggressive. I feel sorry for the porters who live in the basement apartment…who knows what they go through on a daily basis. The elevator is scary and should have been replaced years ago…I know others have been stuck inside of it, but I can confirm that I have also had the unfortunate pleasure of being trapped inside myself a few times (I just take the stairs now). I’ve called 311, but management probably won’t do anything about it until someone gets hurt. The management company and the landlord do not care about this building; they’re content with letting it crumble around our ears. It should be maintained since the building is almost 100 years old, but they don’t care. It took them four months to fix a leak in my apartment (I had to threaten legal action before they finally repaired it. There is no email or emergency number…you can only get a person Monday to Thursday from 9-5 and Friday from 9-12 IF you’re lucky. No email address to leave a paper trail…NOTHING. The landlord, Moshe Piller, is being sued by NYC as of this posting, but he’ll probably just pay the violations and still won’t fix anything. Good luck if you decide to move here; he will take your money and throw you to the wolves. Advice to landlord: This building is almost 100 years old. Please invest some money back into it and make it a safe space to live.
