Great place to live
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Modern finishes in the kitchen and bathroom - Amazing rooftop - Fitness center that's well equipped - Sun drenched apartment with view of the East River - Proximity to transit - Tranquil neighborhood - The doormen are amazing - Maintenance is lightning fast with fixing any issues in the apartment
Cons:
- We're in a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom and it's a bit on the pricy side - The unit we're in is a bit small - We're up for a lease renewal and they increased the rent by 8.8%

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it’s an older building and changed management last year - feels like amenities are outdated - thin windows that leaks air, noisy old PTAC units makes it hard to sleep during summer, and new management increase the rent for old tenants.
