Management ruined a great thing
Former Tenant

Loved this building and still love all the staff- maintenance, cleaning, front desk crew- who made it feel like home.

After 3 years, TFC management has managed to ruin the building with strict rules, insane rent increases, random new hidden fees added to rent, and in responsiveness from leasing office.

Unresponsive and law-breaking management company
Former Tenant
Pros:
No pros at this time
Cons:
I am a current tenant here, and the landlord performed an illegal lockout on 08/28/2023. I have since filed with the Tenant Protection Unit, and plan to file with Housing Court as soon as possible.

Management is very unresponsive and doesn't communicate by phone or email. Lack of maintenance. Rooms are very old and worse than they appear in pictures. Overpriced and would rent elsewhere

It's been a pleasure
Former Tenant
Pros:
Wonderful, long-term, responsive staff who knows your name and genuinely cares. Extremely clean building — probably the cleanest building I've ever lived in! I have never seen a single scary NYC critter in 5 years. Great location, just far enough away from the main drag that you have peace and quiet. Lovely courtyard with birds chirping. Very dog friendly. Gym is never too busy.
Cons:
Soundproofing between walls could be a tiny bit better. I'm blessed with a neighbor who enjoys watching Star Wars 24/7 on volume 100, but prior to him, I had normal neighbors and never had a problem.

Nice but Weird
Former Tenant
Pros:
Clean, doormen are nice and responsive, huge windows and so so much natural light, large laundry room in building, beautiful balcony area. Have not seen any pests or bugs in the 2 years I lived here.
Cons:
My window fell off, the tap water is brown sometimes, I lived near the stairs to balcony and sometimes people that go in and out are loud and would litter outside the door.
