Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 516 East 79 Street highlight responsive and attentive management as a strong point, with quick fixes and well-maintained apartments appreciated by residents. The building maintains good cleanliness, garbage management, and pest control mostly, though occasional pest issues and slow water heating have been noted. Apartments are quiet with friendly neighbors, but the building's older design and unusual floorplans may not suit all tastes. Residents value rent stabilization and included utilities, but some mention the inconvenience of being farther from subways and restaurants. Package handling and boiler efficiency are suggested areas for management improvement to enhance tenant satisfaction.
