Review Summary for 1689 1 Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent renter feedback for 1689 1 Avenue, Manhattan highlights spacious apartments and a convenient, quiet location as positive aspects. However, consistent issues with pest infestations, including mice and roaches, severely impact living conditions. Garbage management and overall cleanliness are frequently criticized, and many tenants report poor water pressure. Owner and management responsiveness is a major concern, with many describing slow or ineffective handling of maintenance and pest control. Despite attractive features like large patios and good heat, the building struggles with maintenance deficiencies and ineffective management, leading overall reviews to be unfavorable for prospective renters seeking reliable upkeep and attentive landlord engagement.

Patio living, with the price of mice
Former Tenant
Pros:
Beautiful large patio
Cons:
We had mice (lots of them) and cockroaches. The bathroom is old and always smelled of urine. The kitchen was old and dirty.
Advice to owner:
Be more responsive to the complaints of tenants. Took months to get a real exterminator over after had been complaining of mice. The super just kept coming but is not a professional and clearly didn’t know what he was doing.
