    Review Summary for 2610 8 Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 2610 8 Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10030 highlight severe issues such as poor communication, unresponsive staff, hot water problems, mold, leaks, and unaddressed maintenance issues. Pros include individual AC units and a spacious furnished apartment. However, these positives are overshadowed by major cons like building violations, lack of responsiveness to tenant concerns, and unprofessional management. The consensus leans towards disapproval of the owner and a lack of recommendation to stay in the building due to critical health and safety hazards that need urgent attention from the management team.

    UNPROFESSIONAL AND LAZY
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Cleaning comes once a month
    AC in each room

    No communication, staff will argue with you, nobody seems to know what is urgent and what is not, you will be out of hot water 25 days out of the year. Mold in bathrooms, leaks, and unresponsive teams.

    Harlem Coliving Property
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building itself is beautiful and has lots of potential.
    Cons:
    Balcony not up to regulation, fire escape not up to regulation, rampant issues of multifloor ceiling and bathroom mold and multifloor leaks that have lasted over three years. Property management company is unresponsive road provides poor customer service and Band-Aids issues rather than actually solving them. The mold in bathrooms on multiple floors was painted over and covered up highlighting the improper remediation of toxic black mold. There is also mildew and mold in the washing machines. This is a violation of the warranty of habitability under New York State real property law section 235-B.
    Advice to owner:
    Come by and meet the tenants, we all love the property and take great care of it and would love to see it flourish and to live in a safe environment. Mold and air quality tests should be done prior to this being taken to housing court.
