Pros: Quiet building, cute brick walls, great street parking (never part more than a block away), rent control, AC, heat, 6 dryers and 5 washers, maintenance is responsive.
Cons: if your apartment faces western-lots of noise, thankfully mine faces the other way. Had a friend move out because she heard so much street noise. Dirtier and older building. Graffiti sometimes outside. Elevator breaks down/is super super old. Washer/dryers have issues sometimes but maintenance can fix.

PROs: affordability and brick CONs: acoustics, elevator, mailroom theft
I wanted to live in a brick building and this place drew me in for the price. I loved my apartment, here are a few pros and cons about this building:
Pros: - Affordable and rent controlled - Exposed brick - No onsite parking but pretty easy to find street parking. It does get competitive on Wednesdays and Thursdays for street cleaning. Catalytic converter was also stolen. - Maintenance is fast - Great breeze if you’re in the right apartment.
Cons: - Elevator: old building – old... elevator. Hard to open, breaks down a lot and small so moving is done up the stairs. - No security, doors always open or stuck - Not as many homeless people outside the building compared to Wilshire area but still sketch and a number of incidents. - Laundry is on site but breaks down all the time. Residents move your clothes. - Residents steal packages, send your packages to the 7-11 - Acoustics: you will hear absolutely everything above and below you. Someone turns a sink on you will hear it. People playing music? The whole building will hear. People playing instruments on the 4th floor? You can hear it at the basement.

The building is in a great neighborhood with available street parking. The building manager Pepe is friendly and kind and will help you with any issues and concerns that you may have.
