This is the most saturated real estate market in manhattan, so i think someone can find comparables with working utilities..

We got the point! No need to create 5 different posts.

I think Jim is getting it

Regardless of below market price, it is expected to have working ac or am I mistaken? For that matter is it ok if we have no heat in winter too!

curious if the fact this building is majority sponsor owned prevents these apts from appreciating/makes them harder to resell? also, MIKE1971: are you still having ac/heat issues?

not sure how this relates to my question—unless you're suggesting i'm a troll. lol

To be factual, as there are many non factual comments about this building on this post / thread by someone who I imagine does not or has not lived in the building. I am happy to speak to anyone who has questions about this building and will answer factually. For example, the sponsor currently owns less than 59% of the building and is in process of selling down to 49% for the sole reason that as a result, banks will no longer need a waiver to finance into this building. Citibank and Sovereign are current and active lenders for this building. To address this supposed A/C and heat issue, the A/C was out two days last year due to refurbishment of the system. I can get the residents of the 106 units in this building to testify to this fact. The heat has never had a problem. Do not let a random basher who does not live in the building influence you with non factual information. I am willing to provide my contact info - let's see if the basher would do the same (which is always the best way to flush out the facts). Happy to help - Holbrook (holbrookf@gmail.com)

i also live in the building and there are no heat issues. The A/C was out only once last year, I believe. But I really wouldn't call it air conditioning more like a fan. Very low and cool (not cold). I can deal with it in the living room but the bedroom it is terrible. It has three setting low-med-high and in reality it is lowest-lower-low.
Without a set of fans and the a/c I would sweat through the sheets. And until I bought the fans I actually did. And if H doubts I live here, my proof: Jeremiah, the worst doorman I've ever seen. The rest: Alberto,Danny,Dean,Freddie and Mohammed are excellent!

Hah - Jeremiah is soo bad! I miss Pat. Happy i'm not the only one who thinks the new guy is completely useless...
