Review Summary for 211 East 89 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 211 East 89 Street reveal mixed tenant experiences. Apartments are noted for their decent size, good heating, and convenient location near amenities. However, the building suffers from cleanliness and garbage management issues, with persistent pest problems reported in some areas. Noise insulation is inadequate, allowing neighbors' sounds to permeate units. Management responsiveness is inconsistent, with many renters frustrated by slow or unhelpful maintenance and security concerns, including package theft. While some tenants approve of the owner and find the building livable, others caution potential renters due to building upkeep and management shortcomings, suggesting improvements in maintenance, cleanliness, and security measures.

Former Tenant
Pros:
All the basics, overall well-managed. Never ran into major issues. The onsite super was very helpful for all sorts for things, sometimes a little hard to get a hold of but really nice and willing to fix all sorts of things around the apartment.
Cons:
Can very easily hear neighbors through the walls, even the sound did the TV.

The layout is odd with the A,B, and C buildings - there need to be clearer signs at the entrance. Also the apartment numbers don't match up to floors which is just confusing.

The management aren't reasonable when negotiating for re-signing. This was ultimately the reason I left, they weren't in touch with the market and there were way better options available all over.
Advice to owner:
Be more open to negotiating for rental renewals.
