UWS Hidden Gem
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quiet, easy reach to shopping, Trader Joe’s/Whole Foods & gourmet, super safe, close to park, pet-friendly (all sizes), amazing 24-hour staff, super clean, nice basic amenities, great price for prime UWS, 2 minutes to 1/2/3 trains, amazing rooftop, quick professional repair response if needed, internal a/c systems, industrial laundry machines on most floors ($2/load), & tons of elevators in the building.
Cons:
The on-site gym (included) isn’t very large, & it gets full fast, with Equinox the only other close-by fitness option. The a/c & heat change-overs are a little bit of a pain because you’re just going to be hot for a couple of weeks 2xs a year - get a fan & a dehumidifier - also ask maintenance to show you how to watch for clogs in your a/c unit, especially if you have pets. Picking a unit: some units are very outdated, but plenty are clean and truly updated with simple but nice & clean fixtures. Don’t let anyone with a kitchen from 1996 tell you it’s “updated”.
Advice to owner:
The property is beautiful. We’ve really enjoyed our time here.
