Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants consistently praise Jonathan Durst's buildings for cleanliness, professional and helpful staff, and well-maintained amenities including gyms and shuttle services. Management is noted for responsiveness and quick maintenance, especially at West 57 Street and 625 West 57 Street. However, common tenant concerns include slow or unreliable elevators, aggressive and significant rent increases upon renewal, and occasional issues with noisy neighbors or pests, especially in Lower Manhattan properties. Some renters find the locations somewhat isolated from subway access, though provided shuttle services partially mitigate this. Overall, residents appreciate the building upkeep and management communication but caution about rising costs and renewal challenges.

Fantastic place to live

Pros

The doormen are wonderful and so helpful, maintenance is very quick to come when there are issues, and the gym and other amenities are all lovely. Our views are practically unmatched from our corner unit.

Cons

My air conditioning has broken many times, but they do always fix it quickyl.
