Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
The building at 321 Avenue C is praised for its cleanliness, responsive management, and well-maintained common areas, including convenient in-building laundry. Rent stabilization and lovely East River views enhance its appeal. Tenants appreciate the community atmosphere and ample storage in apartments. However, some drawbacks include frequent elevator issues, noise from the nearby FDR Highway, thin walls, and occasional pests or cigarette smells. The location offers proximity to grocery stores and bus routes but may require a walk to the subway. Overall, management is proactive and friendly, making it a desirable option despite certain noise and maintenance challenges.

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.
