Reviews

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Constant problems in the building like elevator door fails to open etc

Pros

Rooms are large

Cons

The owner Gideon Platt and Brandon Valentin. They're dishonest, rude, condescending and unpleasant people to be around.

Advice to the owners

Lose the arrogance and treat people with respect.

Former tenant·2 months ago

Dilapidated old bldg with possible lead pipes

Pros

Proximity to Central Park

Cons

The owner, mgmt style, bldg elevators get stuck, rodents in basement, pricing way too high for all that plus low water pressure and heat and hot water weren't good. Luckily gone now and in a much nicer place with better landlord/manager who isn't so difficult to deal with.

Advice to the owners

Sell the bldg to a better person who cares about people and knows how to manage a building.
