Review Summary for 310 East 74 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
310 East 74 Street offers spacious, well-lit studios in a prime Manhattan location near transit, parks, and dining. Tenants appreciate quiet living due to thick concrete walls and enjoy ample amenities like a functional elevator and large laundry room. Water pressure and heating generally receive positive remarks. However, persistent pest problems, especially roaches and rodents, are a major concern, exacerbated by inadequate garbage management and small trash chutes. Many report management as slow or dismissive in addressing these issues, though some find the owner and superintendent responsive. Cleanliness and common area upkeep vary, and the building struggles with occasional maintenance delays.

Dirty and bugs
Former Tenant
Pros:
good price and size apartments
Cons:
the hallways stink, the basement is disguting- there’s roaches and mice at all times. they will crawl up into your rooms. They offer pest control 2x a month yet somehow the roaches are still freaking EVERYWHERE. I can not stress enough how dirty this place is.

Mice in walls that never go away
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rent stabilized, laundry in basement, elevator functional most of the time.
Cons:
Absolutely zero support from management in regards to neighbor noise and neighbor refusal to follow rules. The trash chutes are tiny so neighbors put trash bags on the floor in the trash rooms to rot which attracts rodents. There are rodents living in and crawling all through the walls of my apartment and building floor. I can’t get rid of them because they’ve never been physically inside my apartment, but no matter what I do management has never effectively dealt with the issue. They’ll have someone spray intermittently and one will die every now and then and cause a stench for a few weeks, but the rodents have a system moving all through the walls surrounding the apartment, likely due to no insulation, and they won’t go away unless their access point is located and sealed. I get it, it’s New York, there will always be rodents. But I hear these animals LOUDLY 24/7. It’s disgusting and a health hazard
Advice to owner:
Get rid of the rodents in your walls and block whatever entry points they’re accessing from the basement. Enlarge the trash chutes they’re ridiculously tiny and trash management in the basement and trash rooms are the reason there are rodent issues.
