“Unit 62 Pros: It's owned by Bard Graduate Center (BGC), so the entire building is occupied by students, faculty, and staff from the program. You mostly know everyone you ride the elevator with, pass in the entrance, or share the common spaces with. The facilities staff is pretty responsive, and in general the place stays clean. (I wouldn't eat off the floor, but the building is cleaner than a lot of other places I've seen in the city.) Cons: There are a handful of vacant units in the building that BGC uses for visiting/resident scholars and lecturers, and they also rent those units out to parents/visitors of building residents and occasionally those visitors can be a bit loud. But that's as bad as it gets honestly. Advice to landlord: Keep all the short-term rental/vacant units for visitors on the lower floors, preferably all on the same floor. It takes away from the community feeling to live next to one of the visiting scholars who only stay for a few months, or its a short-term rental and there are always different people coming and going.”
