    Review Summary for 202 East 21 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 202 East 21 Street reflect a polarized renter experience. Positives include the building's convenient Manhattan location, good natural light, and some praise for an attentive super and certain management efforts. However, recurring issues heavily impact tenant satisfaction: persistent noise complaints and problematic neighbors create an uncomfortable environment; building maintenance is frequently criticized, notably heating failures, poor cleanliness, pest infestations, and garbage management problems. Owner responsiveness is viewed as inadequate by many, with allegations of tenant harassment and unresolved repair requests. Prospective renters should approach cautiously, as community and management challenges may affect quality of life despite advantageous location and occasional attentive staff.

    Do not live here and avoid Apt 4D/2D
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Overall, the neighborhood was great and our neighbors were good. if you are considering renting here, just avoid Unit 4D/2D like the plague.
    Cons:
    Woman who lives in 3D is not well and mentally unstable. she bangs on the ceiling constantly and reports very minimal noise to the police. for the past year the police would constantly come to our apartment for noise complaints. It was horrible and happened almost daily. We had to leave after one year as landlord would not do anything about it. Avoid at all costs.
    Advice to owner:
    Evict tenant from 3D

    Alex Kahen fined by AG Tish James for bank fraud/tenant harassment-on google
    Front door always broken
    Packages stolen
    Packages left in entry-hard to enter bldg

    Gary & Anton/Super-workers constantly complaining about having to make legit repairs-if made at all

    Advice to owner:
    Sell building to better people. You're too greedy & don't care about the law.
