Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 260 West 52 Street highlight a well-maintained building with spacious units and very responsive, friendly staff including doormen and maintenance. Amenities like laundry on every floor are highly valued. The building is pet-friendly and conveniently located near many subway lines in a bustling theater district. However, noise from 8th Avenue and theater crowds is a recurring issue, partly due to less effective window soundproofing. Some tenants report occasional pest sightings and elevator reliability concerns, with water pressure varying by unit. Rent increases can be steep, and a few suggest improved management communication. Overall, it's praised for location, staff, and upkeep amid urban challenges.

Overall, a good experience
Former Tenant
Pros:
Management is very responsive Pet-friendly No hidden fees (amenities, pets) The walls have good soundproofing
Cons:
The windows don’t have great soundproofing so if you’re facing 8th avenue it can get loud Rent increases can be really significant, and it’s near impossible to negotiate (though you should still try)
