Review summary

Recent reviews for 240 Central Park South reveal a mix of experiences. Residents highlight the excellent location, friendly staff, and well-maintained amenities, particularly the impressive rooftop deck and cleanliness. However, recurring issues with maintenance delays, poor owner responsiveness, and frequent construction disruptions have drawn criticism. Noise insulation from neighbors is inadequate, contributing to an uncomfortable living environment for some. While pest control is generally managed well, persistent concerns around essential repairs and communication have led several residents to hesitate in recommending the building. Overall, it's a desirable living space but would benefit from improved management and timely repairs.

Former tenant·7 months ago

Worst construction management

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 the owners

Fix things quicker. Invest in better people and things so they can be fixed easier

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

great building but everything is broken

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 the owners
