    Review Summary for 610 West 42 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Tenant reviews of 610 West 42 Street in Manhattan praise the building’s excellent management, responsive maintenance, and attentive doorman and security staff. Residents enjoy the clean, well-maintained common areas, luxury amenities including a functional gym, and beautiful apartments with large windows and scenic views. The building is noted for central heating and AC, pest control, and minimal interior noise, especially on higher floors. However, common concerns include small apartment sizes, proximity challenges with the subway, occasional street noise near Lincoln Tunnel, limited water pressure during peak hours, and restricted rooftop access half the year. Pet-related cleanliness near entrances is also pointed out. Overall, it’s considered a well-run luxury residence with areas for minor improvement.

    Great place to live
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very well run property
    Nice door staff and security
    Responsive management and quick maintenance
    Rent stabilized
    Central heat and AC work very well
    Minimal city noises on high floors or facing Hudson
    Never any issues with pests or bugs
    Nice amenities and very functional gym (did not need another gym membership)
    Quiet area of HK
    Cons:
    Expensive.
    Small units and long skinny room. Not ideal for king size beds
    It might be noisy if you are on a low floor and or facing Lincoln Tunnel intersection (frequent traffic jams and beeping)
    Sub-par water pressure and heat. Could not get a warm enough shower at certain "rush" hours (e.g., 8-10 AM) and had to plan accordingly
    Roof terrace closes for ~6 months out of the year, Nov to May roughly
    A bit far from the subway
    Advice to owner:
    Keep the 8th floor terrace open for longer during the year
