Excellent building undercut by poor management and noise issues

Pros

The finishes are beautiful. We have some great neighbors. The super is responsive when things don’t work.

Cons

The noise bleed is awful to the point where we have to move. The management company has been absolutely horrible about this, and it has made the apartment inhabitable. Also, the utilities are super high and the amenity fee is absurd for what’s there and how they take care of it.

Advice to the owners

Start being responsive to your tenants concerns. Take them seriously.

Living at 475 for ~1 year

Pros

Everything about this building is incredible. Doorman, mail room, maintenance requests. They have the essential amenities. Units are not cookie cutter either. I've loved being here.

Cons

The 2nd and 3rd floors often smell like weed, but not heavily so. The location feels a bit isolated from prime ft greene, but you know that up front. Its definitely never felt sketchy.

Advice to the owners

Keep up the great work
