    Review Summary for 25 West 132 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 25 WEST 132 STREET highlight a clean building with spacious apartments and friendly doormen. However, there are concerns about unresponsive management, especially Lenox Leasing office. Noise levels in the neighborhood are a drawback, with issues like sirens and disturbances.

Despite these drawbacks, some tenants still find the building acceptable, recommending it for its cleanliness and overall size of the units.

    Decent place to live
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Clean building, good doorman, good laundry service although expensive. Apts are huge.
    Cons:
    Unresponsive management crew. The leasing office staff aren’t helpful. They also don’t attempt to remedy their mistakes which is a sign of bad mgmt.

    Don’t expect a response
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building has lots of laundry in basement and the maintenance staff and doormen are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
    Cons:
    If you want to hear back from the leasing office (Lenox Leasing which covers just the complex, not the larger Olnick company), good luck! They do not respond to emails, respond to voicemails, and barely pick up their phones. Information in leases is vague and you get different responses based on who you ask and the day.
    Advice to owner:
    Hire more reliable folks in the Lenox Leasing Office!!! And make sure they answer the phone because the voicemail box didn’t even work the last time I tried calling.
