Every day the hot water runs out while you are trying to shower or it randomly comes out scalding hot. The boiler breaks down often during the winter and there is usually not enough heat. There are electrical problems, causing frequent building wide blackouts. There are frequent water leaks in the builidng. The hallways are always dirty and garbage is often piled up in front of the building. The super is never around. The management company does not respond to your complants and they are rude and generally unpleasant (not to mention that they actually lie to you and tell you you are the only one calling and complaining - when you speak to your neighbors, you find otherwise). When repairs are made, they are often done in a shoddy manner or are not completely finished. THERE ARE MORE THAN 180 VIOLATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN ISSUED AGAINST THIS BUILDING BY THE CITY! You can verify this by going the DHPD page within the NYC.gov website.

I agree 100%. I have lived here for about a year, and I'm amazed that this landlord can get away with all that he does. Are we not human beings here? Do we not deserve at least reliable heat and hot water with our rent, or is that too much to ask? Every time I call the management or the super with a compliant, the response is always very slow and half-hearted. And the blackout thing is ridiculous. I do hear that there is a lawsuit in the works -- the city is taking the landlord to court. I look forward to seeing if that improves things.
