Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
The building at 315 Avenue C is praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained common areas, and responsive management, contributing to a generally positive living experience. Rent stabilization is a key benefit, along with convenient amenities like in-building laundry and access to outdoor spaces such as the Oval Lawn. Residents value the beautiful East River views and proximity to bus routes, though the walk to the subway is noted as somewhat lengthy. Challenges include persistent noise from the nearby FDR Highway, occasional elevator outages, thin walls affecting privacy, and occasional pest issues. Overall, it is considered a good choice for those prioritizing maintenance and community feel.

Good management, clean common spaces
Former Tenant
Pros:
Responsive management, well cleaned common spaces
Cons:
The scaffolding really made the experience much worse, and we were not given notice that there would be scaffolding going up.
Advice to owner:
Notify tenants of scaffolding plans before leases are signed.
