Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for 1660 Madison Avenue highlight its excellent location near Central Park, spacious and well-lit units, and amenities like in-building laundry and a supermarket. The building is generally clean with good pest control and quiet noise levels. However, management responsiveness is consistently criticized, with slow repairs, poor communication—especially regarding construction—and security lapses such as ineffective front door controls. Some renters report issues with heating reliability, pest presence in specific units, and occasional unpleasant odors. While the location and apartment size attract residents, prospective tenants should weigh the drawbacks related to management and ongoing building disruptions.
