Review Summary for 245 East 124 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 245 East 124 Street praise the building's cleanliness, spacious apartments, and friendly, attentive staff including doormen and concierge. Tenants find the location convenient, especially the proximity to subway stations and local stores. Pest control is effective, and overall noise levels inside the building are low, though some units near the street experience more street and fire station noise. Heating can be inconsistent and costly as it's billed separately, and owner responsiveness varies with occasional delays reported. The surrounding neighborhood faces challenges with homelessness and addiction, impacting the area's atmosphere. Improvements in tenant communication and weekend security presence are suggested.

Great building/too many addicts around neighborhood
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is CLEAN. 2 years here and have never seen any pest (knock on wood). Management is responsive. Neighbors are quiet.
Cons:
Heat is on your electric bill (so between constantly paying for air in the summer and heat in the winter it’s a high bill). The unit that controls air and heat is difficult to control and it’s either too hot or too cold. Third and second Avenue can be full of addicts and homelessness. It’s depressing to see.
Advice to owner:
Doormen during the week are fantastic. The weekend ‘security’ you hire for the front desk barely look up at anyone entering the building.
