Definitely not worth the amount of money you have to pay per month. When we first moved in here in 2011 it wasn't that bad. Super was friendly and timely, everything looked nice, there were no problems. Over the years things have declined severely. The neighbourhood is fine, but it's on a noisy road. Trying to get anything done for your apartment requires the pulling of teeth. People smoke anywhere they please and leave their cigarette butts wherever they please. Laundry is $4 (for one washing and drying cycle), there's a laundromat that is much cheaper. Super is obnoxious. Parking is a free for all so if you're not home by 8pm, good luck finding any convenient parking and visitor parking rules aren't enforced so if you have to park in the VISITOR'S LOT because someone decided to have family and friends over, it'll be practically empty. Sure you could rent a garage for an extra $75 to your rent each month, but the garages aren't that big and they're not in a convenient area.
In fact, there isn't much that is enforced.
The apartment I had boasted about two bedrooms and yet only one of those had any sort of cooling. If you wanted AC in that bedroom, you had to leave the door open and use the living room one. There's no way to put in window units and no one wanted to put in a wall unit...
Oh and it took three months for my ceiling to be fixed after a major leak in the second floor apartment happened (due to a shoddy roof), and it took them even LONGER to fix hers.
If you think $1795 a month sounds great for you with all of these things (and there's a lot more, but unfortunately due to character limits I can only summarise things), then come right down for your 900 square foot slice of paradise. There are better, more affordable, places that have the same conveniences, like quick access to routes 23 (which will take you to I-80, 46, and 3) and I-287 (which will lead you to I-280), and so many bus routes for NYC transit. read more
