    Review Summary for 21 West Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent renter feedback for 21 West Street praises the building's prime Manhattan location, spacious high-ceiling apartments, and friendly, attentive doormen and maintenance staff. Laundry facilities on every floor and pet-friendliness add convenience. Many tenants note the building feels safe, with secure package handling and a welcoming atmosphere. However, challenges include occasional noise from street traffic and neighbors, thin walls, outdated windows causing drafts, and limited amenities like a small gym with delayed repairs. Rent increases post-lease renewal and management responsiveness receive mixed reviews, with some tenants frustrated by renewal policies and slow communication. Despite these issues, most renters recommend the building for its community and location.

    Lucky to have lived in such a great building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This is a great building to live in and I miss the location, especially the staff! A few of my favorite things about this building:
    - location, super easy to get anywhere since MTA is so close
    - the front door men and staff are always so friendly and great to chat with, always welcoming you home, and always letting you know when you have a package
    - super quiet and never had any issues with noise
    - dog friendly and great dog parks within walking distance
    Cons:
    - noise from street and traffic is sometimes hard to deal with
    - although it never happened to me, elevators stalled a few times from what I heard
    - amenities are extra $ and a bit lackluster
