Moving

[brigdh]

So, as a result of the whole robbery thing, plus the building owners being even more unbelievably shitty than I had previously realized (among other things, they have still not fixed the window the burglars came through, meaning we have had plywood covering it for a week and a half now), we're looking to move. Today we went to see our first apartments. There was one that was very nice- huge, lots of light, nice building- but I'm sort of uncertain on if we should wait to see more. This apartment is in Washington Heights at 170 and Broadway. Has anyone lived there? Have feelings on the neighborhood?

This is reprehensible. The landlord's a donkey's pizzle!

Have you called 311 and reported them? Because hpd would come out and fix the window and than bill your landlord for it. Or you can fix it and take it out of your rent

Yeah, HPD actually came by this weekend, but we were unfortunately out at the time. But they are aware of the situation.

If they still haven't fixed it before y'all go, y'all should totally take the plywood with you when you go!

Hahahaha, I love that idea. We are totally taking the window gates, so we should take the plywood as well.
