Commute time is what keeps me away from this they sent another letter and while I want to apply fully, I can't justify making my 15 min commute into an hour.
It's actually not bad at all. The Q101 stops right across the street from Steinway Estates. It takes you to the R train "Steinway Station" stop in about 10-15 minutes. You can stay on the bus and get off at Queens Borough Plaza right in front of the N train station going upstairs. The next and last stop after that is the city where it drops you off at 60th street & 2nd ave. This takes about 25-35 minutes depending on traffic going over the bridge.
Personally I walk most often to the Ditmars Ave station to catch the N train. It really only takes me 10-12 minutes so I get in some exercise before I get to work to go along with my caffeine buzz

That's exactly the reason why I'm debating- although I am able to work from home sometimes. It's just that I I live in Manhattan already and work in midtown Manhattan. I'm also rent stabilized, but will spend much more on this rent stabilized building. Decisions, decisions!
Does anyones thermostat work? Air conditioners? With summer coming up I wouldlike to figure this out. I have messed with both and none seem to blow cold air
Does anyone know how big the 1 bedroom apartments are? I mean by square footage?
Thanks!
They vary. I can't recall the exact number but i believe mine was either 720~ or 760~ sq ft. I was shown another slightly smaller 1 bedroom that I think was ~620sq ft. These numbers were told to me by the Langsam representative that showed me the apartments when I went to choose which one I wanted.

So it's definitely over 700sq ft? That's a great size!

The high ceilings make the place look even bigger. I'm still in love with my apartment. Sometimes I sit on my couch, zone out and look around for a few minutes lol.
