    Review Summary for 505W37
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 505 West 37 Street, Manhattan, praise the building’s cleanliness, well-maintained common areas, and responsive, friendly staff including doormen and maintenance teams. Tenants enjoy spacious apartments with good natural light, solid amenities like a gym and laundry, and pet-friendly policies. The building offers reliable pest control and water pressure, with some units providing excellent views. However, drawbacks noted include occasional noise from nearby tunnels and construction, some issues with insulation, and concerns about the neighborhood’s safety and vibe. Rent prices are considered high by some, and a few renters mentioned management strictness and occasional late-night neighbor noise. Overall, it is a dependable building with strong management and convenient Hudson Yards proximity, appealing especially to those working nearby.
