Review Summary for 429 East 52 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 429 East 52 Street, Manhattan highlight the building’s quiet and pleasant location on a dead-end street with friendly and helpful doormen and management. Apartments offer natural light, good closet space, and are generally clean, with low pest issues reported. However, many tenants note slow and unreliable elevators and outdated hallways and interiors that do not fully justify the high rents. Several raise concerns about management responsiveness, especially after a fire two years ago, and call for upgrades to common areas, laundry facilities, and additional amenities like a gym or a better courtyard. Despite some shortcomings, many recommend living here for the location and community feel.

Expensive but mostly stress free
Former Tenant
Pros:
There are elevators, laundry in the building, dishwashers, no bugs (I’m on a higher floor), and an online portal where you get communications, request maintenance, pay rent, etc.
Cons:
It’s quite expensive and for being a doorman high rise, there aren’t amenities that other buildings in the area have (gym, rooftop, etc)
