Everyone in the neighborhood is polite and the best part is how close and easy everything is. You're 500 ft away from the red line, laundromat across the street, there's multiple delis and grocery stores and my favorite Dunkin'! location-wise, it's my favorite part about this building. sadly, the owners of the building are terrible. You have to go to a building in Midtown (One Penn Plaza) only Mon-Fri, 9-5 PM to pay your rent. This schedule can become hard with someone who has a busy schedule like me. Sometimes, they like to take an early day and even once you're there to pay the rent, if they're not there, they won't accept it. There's no other way to do it which can become frustrating. The super also NEVER answers the phone. We've had a broken toilet for half of our lease even though we've sent multiple emails and calls to fix the toilet. There's also rats and roaches and even though It's NYC, it's still not nice to be living under these conditions. Please find another way to pay the rent and get a better Super.

It's a Gxcellent area/location. The train station is right there, You've got multiple deli's and grocery stores, and a laundromat right across the street. Pests (such as roaches and mice), and the mgmt is a complete shit show. They don't respond in a timely manner, and they don't ever actually solve the issues given to them. Plus, they are extremely unorganized.

Apartments are spacious, neighbors are friendly, and the neighborhood is beautiful. The building has an exterminator come in once a month to check apartments but that hasn’t stopped anything. The super barely, if ever, responds. You must continue to pester him for simple home improvements. Property mgmt is a large firm that doesn’t have time for you as a tenant. Mixes you up with others constantly. Talk to your tenants

The unit I’m currently in is massive compared to most NYC apartments. I live in a 4 bedroom 2 bath and I like we have an electric stove. - Roaches daily ( I kill at least 3 a day and it’s disgusting) - Had a mouse problem for months and had to take measures into our own hands - Water constantly gets turned off, sometimes without warning -The walls are so thin you can hear everyone Exterminator needs to come at least twice a month with a Blace this old
