Howard Lifshitz

Tenants of Howard Lifshitz’s buildings report a mixed management experience. Several buildings, notably at 11 Maiden Lane, feature responsive supers and relatively helpful management, maintaining cleanliness and decent upkeep, with good safety and neighborly environments. However, common issues include slow or poor owner responsiveness, especially in older or more problematic buildings like 700 East 9 Street and Queens properties, where maintenance delays, heating problems, pest infestations, broken amenities, and noise complaints frequently arise. Package theft, unreliable elevator and laundry machines, and occasional attitude issues from management also surface. Prospective renters should expect a variable management quality with ongoing infrastructure challenges in some buildings.
