Good apartment for a college student with rich parents
Former Tenant
Pros:
The best parts about this building are the location and the wonderful doormen staff. You cant beat the location being in the heart of the Village, and all of the doormen are wonder and very kind people.
Cons:
The cons are that majority of the current tenants are 20-22 year old students who are somehow able to pay the ridiculous rent costs these days. Parties take place every weekend, and the walls are very thin, so you can hear music and noise quite easily all hours of the night. The noise is not well regulated. The hallways also reek of marijuana smoke during these times, and the smell can even come into the individual units.
Ever since the pandemic, this building jacked up rent costs well over 100% of what previous tenants were paying. All of the old-timer residents have since moved out (besides the few who are rent-controlled), and the incoming tenants are just kids who treat the building like a college dorm.

Decent building, no amenities, very loud and dirty area

Pros:
New renovations look nice (though are a bit cheap). Doormen and staff are nice. Building management responded to everything I needed.

Probably overpriced considering there are zero amenities. Management isn’t forthcoming about construction/renovation/etc

Building management needs to join 21st century
Former Tenant
Pros:
Can’t beat the location. Across from Strand Book Store and steps from Union Square.
Cons:
The management requires you to mail a check. There’s no direct deposit. No blinds on windows, you have to install your own. No window cleaning no matter high you are.
Advice to owner:
Modernize your management of buildings and stop ripping people off.

Bad management, great building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nice lobby, good apartment layout, good view, nice rooftop. Very quiet neighbors, not the best building if you’re younger but if you want peace and quiet you won’t be disappointed.
Cons:
Superintendent is creepy and checks out girls/yells at people (very scary man), construction workers entered apartment with no permit/notice and insisted on installing an AC sleeve. Elevators are slow and usually one or both in not working.
Advice to owner:
Fire the superintendent and hire someone new. Keep construction noise to a minimum and stop construction workers from hogging the elevators.

Really nice staff, very few issues
