Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 1485 1 Avenue highlight spacious, renovated units with good water pressure and heating. The building has friendly neighbors and features like video intercoms, laundry, and security systems. However, noise from thin walls, frequent elevator issues, and cigarette smoke odors are common complaints. Pest problems, especially rats, near adjacent vacant lots are concerning. Management responsiveness is generally rated low, with slow repair service and ongoing unresolved maintenance issues, leading to tenant frustration. Garbage management is well handled, but cleanliness is moderate. While some tenants recommend the building for its location and unit quality, others caution about noise and landlord communication problems.
