denton, someday i must tell you stories about my doormen in Manhattan. They were extremely nice guys and got me out of a few “jambs” more than once!!!!
And the negative comments continue…
Why, I have no idea.
geez people the garbage disposal line was obviously a joke.
“They’re extremely friendly, and seem genuinely happy to be here.”
That usually changes right after Christmas 🙂
A garbage disposal costs about $100 and can be installed in about an hour or so.
Prior to the early or mid nineties they were outlawed in NYC.

Also, did I mention we have a garbage disposal, a dishwasher and a washer dryer *IN* the apartment? The garbage disposal is really what did it for me.
a garbage disposal? what is this 1975? that is not an amenity, that’s disgusting. garbage disposals are vermin magnets. ICK!
*rob*
The Chelsea Market is next to the projects too. I guess people don’t want to live in Chelsea either.
Cillmylandlord: You are totally on the mark…it’s really hitting home this week how freakin’ negative MOST of the posters here are about EVERYTHING that comes up. This store sucks, no one wants to buy anything nice in Brooklyn, this won’t sell (then does), these will never rent (and then they do).
Just ONCE, I want to hear someone from one of these Avalon threads who said the place would never rent would come here and say they were wrong.
And yes…if you’ve even LOOKED at the building at night, it’s quite apparent that all of the apartments are not completed yet on the inside, so they are probably renting as they finish them up…in which case they are doing a mighty fine job with the marketing.
> The garbage disposal is really what did it for me.
Really? The dishwasher and washer/dryer I definitely understand, but who gets excited over a garbage disposal?
