Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews of 1998 2 Avenue reveal several critical issues despite some positive attributes. Residents praise the building's modern appliances, clean and updated appearance, and quiet atmosphere in certain units. However, management is widely criticized for poor communication, unresponsiveness, and unresolved maintenance problems including frequent hot water outages, pest infestations, plumbing failures, and construction delays. A major concern is the 24/7 gym located directly above the 11th floor, causing significant noise disturbances without proper soundproofing. Promised amenities like the rooftop pool remain unavailable, contributing to tenant frustration. Overall, renters caution prospective tenants due to ongoing operational shortcomings and management inefficiencies.

DO NOT RENT APARTMENTS ON THE 11th FLOOR.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Modern appliances and nice location.
Cons:
There is a 24/7 gym and movie theater located on the building's 12th floor and no soundproofing. Do not rent an apartment on the 11th floor unless you don't mind the sound of heavy weights and dumbbells being slammed onto the floor above you at all hours of the days and nights. Also the thud-thud-thud of the treadmills that cause your apartment to shake. Also, try sleeping when someone is watching a Marvel movie above you at 1 'o clock in the morning. The management will lie to you and say that noise from the 12th floor won't be an issue but DO NOT BELIEVE THEM! They will tell you any lie necessary to get your money.
Advice to owner:
Move the gym and movie theater to the ground floor like most buildings!

DO NOT RENT APARTMENTS ON THE 11th FLOOR!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Modern, decent ameneties.
Cons:
Do not rent an apartment on the 11th floor. The building put their 24/7 gym on the 12th floor and there is no soundproofing. You will hear weights and dumbbells crashing onto the floor above you at all hours of the day and night and management will not do anything about it. (Most buildings put their gym on the ground floor for a reason!). There is no padding or anything on the gym floor so the noise in incredibly loud.
Advice to owner:
Soundproof the gym, limit its hours, or move it to the ground floor.
