Over 2 years ago
doorman bldg with gym -- co-op bldg, so beware of that
Former Tenant
Pros:
Gym (not huge but works)
Small basketball courts/squash courts/ping pong table
Depends on unit owner, but mine was responsive
Right next to subway
Doormen are great
Cons:
Application process was cumbersome/expensive
Move in fees, move out fees, very weird rules on when/how to move out furniture, outdated website for reservations (move out elevators + amenities like basketball court)
Trash room on each floor is too small for recycling
Elevators can be a bit slow during AM rush
Advice to owner:
Fix trash situation
Over 3 years ago
Well managed, but too much construction
Former Tenant
Pros:
Lovely rooftop view, amazing health club,
Cons:
Renovation is taking long, and would be great if the rooftop, which is some of the nicest views in Manhattan, had furniture set up
Advice to owner:
Hurry finishing renovation!
