Great place but too small for what you pay
Former Tenant
Pros:
New appliances, great location, the best rooftop in the city.
Cons:
Small and not a lot of storage. Also, the A/C bill in the summer for a 1bed 700 sq/ft apartment was almost $500 in July. Usually its around $350, but needless to say it is not energy efficient at all and you're paying for top dollar for rent already. They bait you in with a lower rent and increase it to absurd levels.
Advice to owner:
Focus on retention and not just new renters

Think twice before renting here!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location, views, gym
Cons:
- elevators constantly out of service or busy with the renovation teams. Usually only 2 elevators work for 400 apartments. - unethical commercial practices by leasing team. - sudden huge rent increases (25/35%+) - rooftop area regularly rented to private parties and unavailable - constant renovations in the building since years (the whole place is very slowly renovated) - the building is old despite the apparent renovations - Gas and hot water have been regularly not available in many apartments. Sometimes for weeks. - Better alternatives in much newer buildings nearby.

Pretty nice but expensive
Former Tenant
Pros:
I love the location and the appliances are all really nice. There is a lot of natural light and very big windows.

Very small and the blinds in the rooms do not block out much light.

New building
Former Tenant
Pros:
I have lived here for almost a year and I have seen people leave consistently after their one year lease is done, as will I, due to the negative experiences of constant construction in the building. That said, all the communal amenities are newly renovated, the interior design is stunning and beautiful. The 360 views rooftop is absolutely gorgeous— my favorite part of the building. The gym is decent and plays good music and the study room area is nice for when there is a lot of construction noise and I have a business call to hop on. Although there is a cafe, it’s not the best quality. And the outdoor park is public until sunset so sometimes homeless people are there (although they are nonthreatening and keep to themselves). The doormen are great and management also tries to do events for the residents every now and then. Lastly Anagram Nomad is located in a fantastic location for subways, stores, restaurants, etc.
Cons:
Because it is a new building and they are actively building amenities and renovating apartments, there is constant construction so much that dust seeps under the door into my apartment as apartments above me, neighboring me, under me, and the hallways undergo construction. There is constant drilling and hammering from as early as 8 in the morning until evening which is really annoying especially if you work from home. We asked before we moved in when construction would stop and they told us 2-3 months. It is 10/11 months later. Additionally, there is 0 drawer space in the kitchen. There are cupboards but no drawers. And the oven and microwave are in one appliance. No fan in the bathroom either so mold was forming on our ceiling from showers 3 months into moving. Sometimes dust, mold, and flies come through the vent in our bathroom too. Hello Alfred is nice but overpriced. The gym has a rock climbing wall but no one has been allowed to use it so I think it’s just for show. Overall, I will be moving out because I don’t believe paying almost 7k a month for this is worth it.
Advice to owner:
Communicate with residents more, be more candid about the developments. Rent is too expensive too.

Good building, crazy rent increase & management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Front door employees are amazing Surely the best rooftop for rentals apt in manhattan Responsive handyman Clean & new units Good neighborhood, close to subways & park Convenient amenities
Cons:
Rent increased by 35% without negotiations possible - way overpriced after the building got acquirer in early 2021. Owner have been kicking out tenants to renovate the units and rent them higher Always under construction Noisy & saw several cockroaches on multiple floors Loud neighbors/really young crowd No washer/dryer in unit Elevators are always under renovation - creates a long waiting line. Wifi available is only Verizon/Spectrum, but cost min 125 for 100mo package (no higher available in building) AC cost is > $100 under low period, >$200 in summer.

Great location, lots of construction
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location is great. Doormen and porters are awesome. Rooftop views are unbeatable. Good amenities.
Cons:
New management company raising rents 20 and 30+% from 2020 to 2021. Construction seems never ending. Some of the younger crowd moving in can be noisy and inconsiderate
