Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of Yakov Blumenkrantz's buildings generally praise the cleanliness, safety, and friendly doorman staff, highlighting convenience with nearby amenities like Target and Trader Joe's. The buildings offer attractive amenities such as rooftop spaces and gyms. However, frequent elevator issues, ongoing noise from street traffic or construction, and occasional slow responses from management are common downsides. Several reviews mention a significant presence of college students, which some feel affects the building's atmosphere. Heating and insulation have been concerns, raising utility costs. Overall, management is viewed as mostly responsive and attentive, though some call for improvements in maintenance and clearer communication.
