this building is the one they show tours in so generally pretty nice
outdoor park space and community

elevator out of commission for multiple weeks on end
paper thin walls, can hear upstairs neighbors very easily

the building is warm, maybe too warm but you have AC. the apartments are well fitted and stylish and things are pretty well kept.

they take a long time to respond to routine maintenance but are fast when its urgent.

Good price for good location

Living on first floor was weird since a lot of people can see through your windows

Responsive management
Public safety is helpful
Green spaces well maintained

Walls are very thin
Heat in the winter can get too hot as it’s maintained by the building

seems like a community with lots of young familie

not good area day or night, not the safest

The virtual doorman is great. I find the noise levels to be very manageable, and as young girls we must make a lot of noise but no one has ever said anything so i imagine no one is hearing us. I feel very safe in this community. Proximity to traders joes and the L is amazing.

You can't control the heat and it works so well that i would be extremely hot in the winter months, which i guess is not a terrible problem to have. It is a lease violation to remove the shower head and put a filter on and this was really frustrating because i have extremely sensitive skin.

The building was good condition, my unit was fantastic. At the original price of 4600 was a great deal in Manhattan, though now, at 6k, it's a much harder sell imo.

Nothing, building was perfect to be honest.

Quiet, clean, friendly and community oriented

Heat is v v hot in winter but it’s New York so can’t really complain

Our unit is too expensive so we’re leaving

No pests
So clean

Resident services is impossible to get a hold of
Appliances break frequently

elevator, dishwasher, utilities all included, laundry room downstairs, easy package delivery to your door

unresponsiveness from the property management team, tiny living room, rent going up

Easy, affordable, parks, big bed rooms

Small living room, bad lighting, area (14th and1st) is convenient but just dirty

Very good management

Heat was too hot

Check the heat in the top level appartements (top level)

Clean, responsive, friendly neighbors

Drain has trouble draining, thin walls

Have open text line 24/7

I love everything about living in Stuytown.

Hospital nearby so if windows are open it can be a bit noisy.

N/a - keep doing things as is

Large space; great for living with roommates; affordable; convenient location with Trader Joe’s and train station; lots of great food and things to do nearby; nice, friendly, and quite neighborhood

Air conditioning is a bit old and loud; shower had constant problem with water pressure in my unit

Offer more incentive

Really good greens; Oval is beautiful

Expensive; thin wall

Pretty grounds that has a campus/community feel.

Stuytown could care less about the quality of their tenants apartments. Maintenance requests are done with little care and they routinely damage things in the process. Upper management needs to be stayed on top of in order for anything to get done properly. Minimal care and sense of urgency unless you make legal threats.

The walls are literally paper thin. Any given day you can regularly hear apartment doors slamming, people walking up and down the stairwell, neighbors talking or even sneezing/coughing, walking around above or below, or blasting music. Invest in a great pair of noise cancelling headphones and come to terms with that everyone can hear everything and anything you are doing in your apartment 24/7.

The laundry room is an absolute disaster. Machines are constantly broken and eat your money. Stuytown continues to raise prices YoY. It’s honestly more cost effective to just send your laundry out vs paying their crazy prices. Dryers barely work to dry your clothes and the temp settings do not work either.

Take care of your tenants by doing quality apartment maintenance vs trying to upsell future ones on all the new renovations that are only in a small % of the apartments. The photos at leasing office are fooling nobody! The apartments do not look like that. Lastly, all the work being done to the grounds is great, but the entire neighborhood comes and uses them and the residents have to pay for YoY upkeep charges. Nobody ever checks the oval space, basketball courts, outdoor gym, if people actually live there.
