    Review Summary for 40 Waterside Plaza
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 40 Waterside Plaza highlight its spacious units, excellent views, friendly doormen, and a safe, community-oriented environment. Residents appreciate strong pest control, good water pressure, and heating systems. However, many note its isolated location with limited subway access, necessitating reliance on buses, which can be inconvenient. Management responsiveness is mixed, with some citing slow reactions and communication issues. Rent and utility costs are frequently mentioned as high, with concerns over steep rent increases and diminished amenities. Suggestions include improved transit services, enhanced on-site amenities, and better engagement from management to foster tenant satisfaction.

    Almost 5 years living here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Bus stop below the building and apartment view. Doorman and maintenance crew are really good!
    Cons:
    Overpriced, no longer has the amenities it should for the price they charge. High electricity bill and high rent increases year after year.
    Advice to owner:
    The electricity and the increasing prices will start driving people away. There are not even events as before to compensate for the cost.
