The woman running the building is horrendous. I lived in it with someone for one month back in 2005. Despite regular complaints, we had almost no heat, and it was late november/early december. I had to sleep fully clothed, jackets, etc. As far as the previous business? The place (Drama Cafe) was the shop of the nasty building owner, and it was closed by the health department at the beginning of last year. I don't think she was ever able to re-open it, and she eventually gave up (putting up a "for rent" sign). I would hope this business has as little to do with the landlord as possible.

Be wary of anything that involves Tona Development. The company was the sponsor for a new eight unit park slope building where I currently live, and they have never resolved major problems with the construction, like a roof that has been leaking since we moved into the building. This is a roof that is under WARRANTY, and rather than being responsible, Tona has not responded to any correspondence or phone calls. Tona didn't even file the (J51) paperwork for the tax abatement. They don't deserve your money.
