Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 640 Broadway highlight its prime location in a vibrant neighborhood with friendly neighbors and access to popular food spots. Tenants appreciate the building’s high ceilings, cleanliness, and helpful super. However, noise from street activity and some building features like the lack of a doorman and elevator are noted. While earlier management was praised for responsiveness, many have expressed frustration with the current management company’s poor communication, slow repairs, and strict policies on minor issues. Garbage management and pest control quality show mixed feedback, with calls for management improvements and better maintenance practices to enhance resident satisfaction.

Targo Management is a NIGHTMARE
Former Tenant
Pros:
We love this building. We've lived here for 3.5 years. The previous management was amazing and responsive. The building is old with a lot of old inner workings, but at least the previous management responded in a heartbeat and fixed whatever needed fixing promptly.
Cons:
This new management, TARGO, is an absolute nightmare. "Unresposive" doesn't cut it. They do not care to respond to tenants over the simplest of matters, yet they blast out emails threatening to charge tenants $300 fines for each box not broken down. This is a LUXURY building. Our rent is insane. We should be taken care of appropriately. I personally break down my boxes, but if I miss one or two here and there, I shouldn't need to worry about being fined for it. Again, this is a LUXURY BUILDING. MANAGEMENT should be taking care of things like breaking down boxes and fixing up broken things. Responsiveness is the bare minimum. They cannot even do that. It's quite literally insane. They are quickly tarnishing our experience of living in this building.
Advice to owner:
Switch to another management company ASAP.

Targo Management is a nightmare
Former Tenant
Pros:
love the neighbors
Cons:
Targo management is unresponsive to any work orders and tries to absolve any responsibility that should be on the management company to the tenant. They send out the most ridiculous emails threatening to fine tenants, and they take forever to resolve anything,
Advice to owner:
BRING BACK THE PAST MANAGEMENT COMPANY
