Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 174 East 85 Street highlight the building's prime Upper East Side location, proximity to multiple subway lines, and updated apartments with high ceilings as major positives. Tenants appreciate quiet neighbors in many units and amenities like in-unit laundry. However, concerns consistently surface about unresponsive or slow management, maintenance delays, pest control issues, and noise from the nearby fire station for front-facing units. Apartments are generally small with some complaints about poor natural lighting and occasional water problems. Overall, the building suits those valuing location and apartment upgrades but may frustrate renters needing prompt management service and soundproofing.
