Great building staff, friendly neighbors, finishes in the newer apartments are nice

Problem neighbors are often longtime tenants which means if you have an issue with a neighbor doing something that disrupts your quality of life (ie causing mold or encouraging pest infestations), you’re the one who has to suffer or go. Issues with mold and roaches abound. Charge for the crappy basement gym is unreasonable for what you get.

The staff - specifically the staff at the front desk during the day, and the maintenance staff - are extremely friendly. The building is located near many amenities, and of course - the main attraction - Central Park. Quiet neighborhood, pet friendly, and good transit options nearby. There is also a package room which is very convenient and has friendly staff. Laundry room is decent too.

While the interior in newer units may seem nice, they are quite cheaply made and do not last very long. Improper installations, heat from radiators at boiling temperatures, pests (including mice and roaches) run amuck in the apartments, garbage chutes constantly filthy (even with signs begging tenants to be more careful,) noisy neighbors (younger and younger tenants being allowed to rent and party all night long,) and worst of all... management. If you need anything besides some minor repairs, good luck! They do not care about you one bit. They lie constantly and will ignore you whenever they feel like it. And the rent is way too high in price for the quality and services you get in this "luxury building.) Tenants have protested the rise in costs and the lack of communication and insane rent increases. Not to mention the constant construction! And while the staff at front desk during the day is WONDERFUL, the night staff could not care less. Sometimes they're even sleeping! They don't check to see who's coming upstairs unless it's delivery. You can walk in without speaking to anyone and go straight upstairs... strangers getting past security 24/7!

Start communicating with your tenants, crack down on rules and noisy tenants, and stop raising the rent! You're driving away people for a reason...

Abundant Hot Water Location Maintenance response time

Extra amenity costs Not as clean as should be

The flex walls are up to the ceiling and there are three elevators

The heat is very intense even when it’s turned off it makes loud sounds at 3 a.m.

The location is great with access to the express red line and B/C. Right above Whole Foods and across the street from Target making groceries very convenient. Never felt unsafe walking even at 4am.

We did have a mouse issue once in our 2 years of living here. Management was quick to respond and address the issue. Room is also quite small in our 3 bed

Package room, replaces appliances (got stove and dishwasher replaced)

Doormen don’t really do much, sometimes have to send reminders for maintenance

Location is great. Easy access to multiple subway lines and grocery stores.

Had mice in the kitchen, but pest control came immediately to resolve the issue

The building has generally lower price than other luxury buildings (if you call it a luxury). It has a room for delivery

It is an old building and you may meet some neighbors who are noisy over night

I moved out

Door men/ woman were asleep. Roaches were in apartments and laundry room. Apartment smelt of gas for 8 month so we had them come in multiple times to check and they said we have no gas leak. 8 months later we found out there a gas leak and they are refusing to do anything

Friendly staff, package room, door men

Gym is extra $50/ Month

Include the gym, there’s not even that much equipment there

very nice front desk workers, clean common areas and very safe package room. good area.

when we moved in we were not informed there was a history of cockroaches in the kitchen until we began finding them only days after moving in. We had it written in to the lease that the apartment would be cleaned when we moved in… it absolutely was not. There were other maintenance issues as well including floor boards coming up.

- proximity to Whole Foods, Target, subway station, etc. - well-managed package room, so you don’t have to worry about your packages being stolen - always someone staffing the lobby desk - garbage chutes on every level

- handymen aren’t super handy. when something goes wrong in your apartment, it will likely get worse before it gets better. - laundry machines aren’t maintained (always dirty and may or may not work, regardless of whether you already paid for them) - our unit was suuuuper dirty when we moved in. it took about two weeks to fully clean it.

- promptly follow up on maintenance issues - take care of the laundry room - welcome new residents with a clean apartment

Location is good.

TERRIBLE MANAGEMENT!! Noise Level - constant construction, Filthy, Rude AF Rent Stabilized Tenants, Cockroaches, Mold, Super high 'market rate' rental pricing - predatory!

FIX YOUR SHIT OR STOP CHARGING SUPER INFLATED RENT.

- Gym in building - Package Room - Decent sized bedrooms - Covid pricing

- Managment company is impossible to work with - no room for negotiating - Non-renovated apartment for renovated price - Hiked price this year

People are nice

Management take a long time to answer and fix things
