Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews for 200 CENTRAL PARK SOUTH in Manhattan highlight the prime location as the main advantage, with proximity to Central Park, clean common areas, and friendly staff. However, concerns were raised about management's lack of responsiveness, mediocre apartment quality compared to the high rent, noise from constant construction, and water/mold issues. Several renters mentioned the Spitzer family trust's influence and the challenges of living alongside affluent tenants. Despite these drawbacks, some residents appreciate the building's cleanliness, garbage management, and water pressure levels. Overall, the consensus leans towards caution due to ongoing issues and limited value beyond the location.

Is the location worth it?
Former Tenant
Pros:
The staff is really nice and the common areas are well taken care of. We loved the location but often questioned why we didnt move a block or two away and get a far superior apartment and building for the same money.
Cons:
Owners in the building can have out of control dogs and generally be awful neighbors in any way they choose (noise, smoke, etc) with zero consequences from the building manager (who’s pretty awful. His assistant mgr is nice tho.) The quality of the apartment itself is pretty mid range (at best) - the high rent is for the location. They turn the ac on way too late and off way too early in the seasons so plan to spend a few months out of the year really uncomfortable. There’s no thermostat to speak of so you get nuclear level heat or nothing in the winter. There seem to be a lot of water and mold problems and construction noise is CONSTANT.
Advice to owner:
Agree with the other reviewer - why waste your time.
