As good as it gets as a luxury building at midtown
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great accessibility across uptown and downtown, good building considering the older neighborhood, good rooftop views, in door washer dryer, friendly doormans.
Cons:
it’s an older building and changed management last year - feels like amenities are outdated - thin windows that leaks air, noisy old PTAC units makes it hard to sleep during summer, and new management increase the rent for old tenants.
