The New Amsterdam Building

I lived here for a year, and I got very sick. (It was very dusty, and I developed asthma for the first time in my life.) As, soon as I moved into a newer luxury building, I started to feel much better pretty much right away. After six months, I was finally asthma free. For health reasons, I would highly recommend that you look at other buildings. The other thing that was bad about this building is that it can be scary at night. It’s in between projects, so the pizza delivery man wouldn’t even come upstairs. Thugs love to hang out all around the outside of the apartment, especially late at night. Sometimes, they will follow you to the subway. There are lots of rats on the sidewalks all around this building. The area in general is fairly scary, and I would say worse than a lot of Harlem, and the building is highly overpriced.
