Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 4134 Crescent St highlight its excellent location near Queensboro Plaza and convenient subway access, making Manhattan commutes quick. The building benefits from attentive, friendly doormen and maintenance staff, well-maintained cleanliness, and rent stabilization that helps control rent hikes. Apartments offer efficient heating and central AC, with balconies valued by residents. However, noise from traffic and frequent honking on Crescent Street is a significant concern, especially for street-facing units. Some longstanding issues include outdated gym equipment, aging appliances, occasional pest problems, and limited communication methods. Tenants suggest improved modern communication, gym upgrades, and better noise mitigation to enhance living experience.

Great building and staff but rigid & money-minded landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location with connectivity with many transit lines within walking distance Doorman and maintenance teams are friendly and responsive Small studio but with good layout + energy efficient central AC & heat + balcony
Cons:
Tried to sublet / transfer my lease but landlord made it difficult and tried to take as much money off tenants as they can. The building is rent-stabilized but landlord tried to unstabilize and lease out my unit at a ridiculously high "market" rate. Location is very convenient to get around, but may lack a neighborhood vibe.

Overall quality is nice, no major issues like pests/bad management. Sound level is fine for being right next to subway.

Shower water pressure is a bit off, also no ventilation in bathrooms.
