Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for 359 West 52 Street highlights spacious units, a vibrant neighborhood, and rooftop access as appealing features. Residents appreciate modern interiors and friendly neighbors, especially given the building's limited number of units. However, recurring issues with heating and hot water reliability, along with occasional pest problems, are concerns. Noise disturbance from the lively street and thin windows has been frequently noted, suggesting soundproofing improvements are needed. Management’s responsiveness receives mixed reviews; some praise cooperation and rent adjustments for outages, while others complain about slow or inadequate maintenance, uncommunicative contractors, and lack of emergency support. Despite drawbacks, many still recommend the building for its space and community vibe.

WORST MANAGEMENT IN NYC. DO. NOT. RENT.

Pros

This building has recent renovations and has large kitchen and living spaces in all units. Convenient location

Cons

Property Management is super sketchy. Have lived here for four years and have heat and hot water problems- of which Management often ignored us and left us in a freezing cold apartment in subzero temperatures. There is no emergency line available, their contractors do not speak English, and all maintenance requests are fulfilled as band-aid fixes from unqualified contractors. Dealing with this building has been a nightmare and I suggest nobody ever rents from this Management company. The price and amenities may seem like a deal, but trust me you are getting what you pay for. Also a very loud street near bars with pedestrians and pedicabs yelling and playing music into the early hours of the morning. Steer clear
