Review Summary for 601 West 57 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 601 West 57 Street praise its cleanliness, spacious and quiet apartments, friendly doormen, and overall well-maintained facilities. Management and maintenance are generally responsive, contributing to a safe and organized living environment. Notable perks include Amazon lockers, a shuttle to Columbus Circle, and proximity to Riverside Park South. However, renters frequently point out steep rent increases, occasional unfriendliness or slow responses from the leasing office, elevator wait times, and aging gym and AC units. The building's location offers a quieter setting but is considered somewhat far from reliable subway access. Despite some drawbacks, many recommend this building for its comfort and solid management.

Nice building, but huge rent increases make it hard to live here long term
Former Tenant
Pros:
Clean, beautiful, spacious apartments. Staff is mostly friendly. Management generally responsive. I enjoyed my time living there.
Cons:
The main issue I had is that they raised my rent significantly year after year to the point where I had no choice but to move out. I found out from others in the building that they had tons of occupancy, so I assume this was just a move to maximize profits. A bummer, because I would have liked to stay there for a long time. If you move here ensure you are either wealthy enough to weather the big rent increases or otherwise get ready to move out after a year or two.
