Coliseum Park Apartments

Anyone know whether the hospital being so nearby is a problem (ambulance sirens at night)? Thanks much.

I ended up moving in and I've not noticed it. My guess is they try to avoid 9th ave (traffic), but not sure.

Use you head for something other than a hat rack! Low ceilings, cookie-cutter layouts, tacky kitchens, crumby bathrooms with tiny tubs (no therapeutic soaks here) -- and you want to know why they are cheap??? Its because they ARE cheap........................

Anybody care to share opinions about the board? Thank you.

I live there for about 5 yrs now. I say if you are not facing 9th ave or 58th st (hudson hotel), then you are good. Very good location. Bldg and financials are well kept. I think the board is about typical. Although I did hear from the broker community (last year) that the approval process takes very long time. I am not sure if that has changed or not.

I had asked about the Board in another thread. I've heard from a resident and a broker that the new Board is rejecting a lot of buyers and takes forever to review packages. Also heard that they can be punitive once you are in - sending threatening emails warning everyone not to break the rules. That kind of thing. I'm thinking of making an offer on a studio but - would like some feedback on the Board first.

catspacey: Our daughter rented a studio here for a couple of years -- very noisy, if facing the street. She bought a studio at Lincoln Towers -- 30% larger, and for less money [with G&E included]. Dunno about the board.

Thanks. I found out more about the Board...very slow and have added rules like you cannot have a guest for longer than 8 days at a time. I am in the process of buying at Lincoln Towers.

I am considering to buy a studio here. Is washer/dryer allowed in a studio unit? If so, will need board approval first? Thanks for any input!
