Review Summary for 41 St Nicholas Terrace
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 41 St Nicholas Terrace reflect a convenient location with easy access to multiple subway lines and a neighborhood with long-term tenants, fostering a strong community feel. The building offers rent-stabilized units, functioning elevators, and efficient laundry facilities. However, pest issues, primarily roaches, persist despite some management efforts, and building cleanliness—especially in common areas like the lobby—is inconsistent. Management responsiveness varies; some tenants report slow follow-ups, while others praise the super's kindness. Noise levels and occasional security concerns have been noted. Overall, the building suits those valuing location and community but may challenge those prioritizing pristine maintenance and quick management response.

Rent-stabilized, but you have to fight with slumlord and roaches
Former Tenant
Pros:
Good location. Rent-stabilized. Elevator building. Great super. Floors are cleaned each week.
Cons:
- Owned by a notorious slumlord
- when it rains heavily, cielings leak
- Roaches throughout the building, in common areas and in several units from the basement to - the top floor. Management does lip service/runaround, slow to offer slapdash measures that have no chance of resolving the systemic building-wide issue.
- management does not follow up often. for certain emergent things they might be quick, other times you have to hound them
- A lot of theft in the building. At least some of it done by neighbors. It's a pain to receive packages. No camera access. Outsiders consistently break the front door like trying to gain entry.
- experienced a traumatic building fire here
- basement laundry is expensive. for a while there was a fire hazard and a drier was burning several peoples clothes

Overall pretty good place to live, could be a bit cleaner
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is in a great location, and has some wonderful tenants. The units are beautiful with much charm and many face the park. It's nice to have an elevator (although it's a bit slow) and the laundry machines work well! Also a great spot in terms of a very quick walk to the A/C and even not too far from the 1.
Cons:
The lobby could be cleaner and has a constant slight odor.
Advice to owner:
This building would be amazing if the lobby was cleaned. Feels sometimes like management doesn't care about the up keep.
