    Review Summary for 240 Central Park South
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 240 Central Park South praise its unbeatable location, friendly and attentive doormen, and well-maintained units with updated appliances. Tenants enjoy strong water pressure, effective pest control, and generally good cleanliness. The building offers a beautiful terrace and rooftop deck with stunning views, fostering a welcoming community with nice neighbors. However, ongoing construction causes frequent disruptions, noise, and water shut-offs. Elevator and HVAC maintenance is slow and frustrating for some residents, with management responsiveness receiving mixed feedback. While many appreciate the staff's efforts, improvements in communication and quicker repairs would enhance the living experience.

    Worst construction management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    At least they are trying to fix stuff
    Cons:
    Everything breaks and it’s takes them MONTHS to repair. Don’t think I have ever lived here in my five years and the elevators actually worked. One has been out for five months. Five months!!?!?
    Advice to owner:
    Fix things quicker. Invest in better people and things so they can be fixed easier

    great building but everything is broken
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    location, location, location
    great staff and manager, especially Jerry
    Cons:
    everything is broken. elevators constantly down. redoing the entire lobby floor...again. little notice or communication for how long doors will be closed.

    Water systems constantly down for repairs.

    they replaced the unit HVAC and they are terrible. they can't seem to do any work on the building correctly.
    Advice to owner:
    give notice to how long repairs will take. I moved out as I can't live with no communication.
