Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of 1501 Lexington Avenue commend the building’s cleanliness, well-maintained common areas, and friendly, responsive staff as standout features. Residents appreciate the quiet atmosphere inside, except for occasional street noise from emergency vehicles on East 97th Street. Amenities such as the gym (with a small fee) and laundry facilities add convenience, though some note laundry machine issues and elevator wait times when one elevator is down. While the management is generally responsive, a few renters found leasing communication inconsistent and cited significant rent increases after rent stabilization ended. Overall, it remains a desirable and well-kept residence near convenient transit.
