Four Park Avenue at 4 Park Avenue,

Manhattan, NY 10016

Clean building, nice doormen

Expensive for the apartment size, the window faced other buildings not a good view

Right by the 6 train. 5 minute walk to trader joe’s. 8 minute walk to whole foods. Lots of gym options in the area. Good price for the size of the apartments.

Most apartments have low sunlight. Tiny kitchens (disproportionate to size of apartment). Awkward layout.

An open kitchen might make the apartment feel bigger

- Staff (doormen, handymen, etc.) are extremely nice, friendly and great at doing their job. - Noise has never been an issue. - It's clean for the most part. - Overall a safe place to live in a great area.

- The biggest issue I've faced is the heat vs. air conditioner. The heat comes on too early making the apartment insanely hot from Sept/Oct until it cools down significantly and April/May until the air conditioner is turned on. These 2-3 months of the year are miserable in the apartment. My apartment temperature goes up to 86 degrees during these months at times. - Can be some rodent issues here and there. Although the building maintenance is always helpful in this situation. - I wish the windows opened slightly more than they do.

The heating vs. cooling months need to be reconsidered. It's absolutely unbearable to have the apartment as hot as it becomes.

The doormen are nice people

The supper harasses you for everything Landlord harasses you for anything The super never does anything The AC is turned on until JUNE. You have to suck it up if you want to use the AC in May or April when it gets hot The super and/or landlord show to your apartment unannounced They access your apartment when you're not home if they need to, just because, without letting you know The super has access to your personal email and personal phone number Laundry room is always dirty Super harasses you if you don't pick your packages on time

The building is well-maintained and the staff is friendly. The walls were thick so I rarely heard any neighbors. I never saw a bug or rodent on my floor

You can't control when the management switches to AC/Heat. I lived on one of the higher floors, and it was always miserably hot at least 2-3 months out of the year. The windows only crack, so there's not much you can do to cool down the apartment. It's hard to justify the rent increases with how hot it is.

Turn on the AC earlier and provide space heaters to the few elderly tenants that want to keep the heat on.

The building is in a super convenient location and they have a nice lobby. The doormen and staff are really kind

The apartments are super small and the kitchen is the size of a closet. You barely get any sun unless you’re along the outside of the building. We also had a pretty bad mice and roach issue especially because we had a dog and they liked dog food. We had a crazy neighbor and the super was so nasty and mean - awful man.

The super was one of the reasons why we wanted to leave so tell him to watch his attitude.

Good location, nice lobby, friendly staff for the most part

Older building, small unit

Helpful doormen and handymen, responsive super, overall well-kept building

Laundry room could use some TLC

Front desk is always welcoming and nice Nice lobby

Had a mice infestation (5 mice). Was almost unlivable for a week, but Miguel (repair man) was super helpful and singlehandedly fixed all of my maintenance issues Lot of construction all the time

Doorman protect your packages!

The laundry room needs to be redone

Doorman building and apartment was big for the price

- RAT PROBLEM. Saw multiple rats and mice inside of my apartment - you can hear rats within the walls. Its horrible!!! - They give you violations if your apartment is not 90% carpeted - noise from apartments above is SO loud because the floors are so old - downstairs neighbors made my life miserable with noise complaints when i was asleep in bed

Figure out your rat problem

garbage is easy, hallways clean

some rooms have very little light because of surrounding buildings

keep doing what you're doing

Quiet and nicely renovated rooms

The Laundry room is not well kept

Doormen and handymen are amazing and so friendly.

The noise from the constant construction is just the beginning of the series of problems we've faced. In our previous unit in this building, we had a roach problem in the kitchen because of open vents and holes from the careless assembly of kitchen appliances. We moved to a different unit where we currently have caught THREE mice in the kitchen with a FOURTH running around. We are clean and tidy tenants who never leave food out, take the trash out every day, and promptly do the dishes. We have called the exterminator 4 times now, and they plugged up every hole in the kitchen, but we still see mouse droppings between the kitchen cabinets and now even in the living room. Management is horrid--it takes numerous calls and emails until they finally decide to respond because they clearly do not want to face any problems. We have been told we can't break our lease despite the hazardous living conditions, and the super does not acknowledge the presence of mice in our apartment even though we have video evidence of the mice.

Offer tangible solutions and reparations for poor pest control

The doormen are really great.

The landlord, Haki, is a miserable man who clearly hates his job. Blames the tenant for any issues and is really nasty when a problem is brought up. Non responsive to emails and when he does respond, ignored the issues at hand. The construction may be worse than the landlord. They told us 3 months when we moved in, going on 2 years now.

Be kind to your tenants. Speak to them with humility and respect. Try to resolve matters in a professional manner, rather than through bullying and harassment. Do not lie about construction length.

Doormen we’re excellent, building in good condition

Work on facade took a long time
