Systemic management failure
Pros
The building is fine. It is the management company that is completely unacceptable. They are the same management company for 160 East 84th 125 East 87th 1700 York Ave 4 Park Ave 444 East 82nd St 134 East 32nd
Cons
We were warned on this site about the management company and we were told it was one bad super that was replaced. Unfortunately it is one poor management company that you can’t change. As I said if you are considering renting at 445 East 80th 160 East 84th 125 East 87th 1700 York Ave 4 Park Ave 444 East 82nd St 134 East 32nd Normally I would have put it down to a single bad employee - we all have those. But the persistence of these issues suggests it is a systemic failure of management and since I was warned and didn’t heed the warning I want others to learn from my poor decision to rent here. We have tried repeatedly to them about an issue with the payment of our rent and received one cryptic response that appeared to be an auto generated email response - at best. When we called reception she refused to connect us with the billing supervisor or give us his/her number to call them back. When I asked for her name she refused to spell it and then hung up. I have never been treated my so rudely. As I said this type of behavior reflects badly on management.
