Review Summary for 114 East 40 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews of 114 East 40 Street highlight a convenient location near Grand Central and responsive staff, including a helpful superintendent. However, challenges include recurrent elevator malfunctions, slow management responses to critical issues like heating, and occasional pest sightings. Some residents also mention issues with cleanliness in common areas and delayed security deposit returns. Despite these drawbacks, the building offers updated interiors, in-unit laundry, and secure package handling. Residents appreciate the proximity to amenities but suggest improvements in elevator maintenance and management responsiveness to enhance the overall living experience.

Decent building but poor management when critical
Former Tenant
Pros:
Apartments itself is well maintained, layout and space is good, decent sunlight for south facing apartments.
Cons:
Common area management is poor (trash chutes not working, elevator often broken, not the 3/5 cleanliness). Decently responsive on non-emergency things like dishwasher, clogging, door handles, but VERY SLOW for critical things like hot water and heating. We've had 3 instances where heat was out and each time it took 3-7 days to restore. This was in winter.
