Review Summary for 180 Water Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 180 Water Street praise its cleanliness, modern luxury, and well-maintained amenities including gym, rooftop, and pool (though pool access often incurs additional fees). The doormen and staff are widely regarded as friendly and helpful. Residents value the building's prime FiDi location and security features. However, several renters note issues with noise due to thin walls and occasional unresponsiveness from management, especially around neighbor complaints and maintenance delays. Rent is considered high with steep increases, and some express frustration over additional amenity fees and limited communication from new management. Despite these drawbacks, the building remains recommended for those seeking upscale living in Manhattan.

Advice to owner:
