    Review Summary for 211 West 146 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 211 West 146 Street reflect a mix of positives and challenges. Tenants appreciate the building's cleanliness, quiet environment, rent-stabilized units, in-unit laundry in many apartments, rooftop access, and attentive superintendents. Monthly pest control and a generally safe atmosphere also stand out. However, significant concerns include poor heating in some units, inconsistent owner and management responsiveness, especially during weekends and holidays, inadequate emergency support, and occasional issues with water pressure and noise echoing in the courtyard. Suggestions focus on improving emergency services, communication responsiveness, and better labeling of staircases and doors. Overall, experiences vary, making the building suitable for some but not all renters.
