    Solid, Residential Area, but Actively Modernizing & A Bit Far
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This is for 510 2nd Ave in Kips Bay Court (open igloo does not recognize). Responsive with complaints and maintenance. Reasonable rent (3 Bed/2Bath for $6900 in 2022). Very nice living room & flex room windows, views, and balcony. Kitchen is modern. Residential area (Trader Joe’s, AMC, M15, access to East River).
    Cons:
    Noise from modernization and Hospital/Fire Trucks along 2nd Ave (510 specifically). Flex is half size of the other BR. Rent raised each year ~$200. Basketball/Tennis court is worn.
    Advice to owner:
    Don’t advertise unavailable amenities. Flag their unavailability and prorate it.

    Good but pricey
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The apartment itself was nice and renovated, maintenance was very responsive and fast
    Cons:
    Under constant construction, drilling into the walls outside lasted for months, loud since it is near the hospital, the rent is charged at a “luxury” price but the building has no luxury amenities

    ELEVATOR NEVER WORKS!!!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building looks nice and there are several ammenities.
    Cons:
    The management company of this building had the nerve to jack up my rent $600/month in a building that does not have a working elevator. All the time and money spent renovating the elevator did nothing to actually fix the core problem resulting in literally daily breakdowns. This is a significant danger for residents in cases of an emergency, especially for the elderly and handicapped. Do they really expect them to walk up all those flights of stairs? The management company has done nothing to rectify the situation and ensure that the only functional elevator is fully operational. It is absolutely ridiculous the amount of money we spend on rent to have to deal with this on a daily basis.
    Advice to owner:
    FIX THE ELEVATOR SO IT STOPS BREAKING DOWN!!!
