Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants renting buildings managed by Steve Goldenberg note a generally responsive and organized management team that values tenant safety and quiet living environments. Many appreciate timely maintenance and good soundproofing, along with strong garbage management. However, there are concerns about persistent pest issues like roaches and bed bugs, which have negatively affected some renters. Some also mention occasional additional charges for minor repairs and lack of flexibility on lease breaks. While cleanliness in communal areas and hallways could improve, the management’s overall attentiveness and well-maintained amenities make these buildings a reasonable choice, particularly for those seeking quiet, safe neighborhoods.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Great and safe building on the UES

Pros

I always felt super safe in this building. The management office was incredibly responsive and if anything needed fixing they’d have someone put there usually within 1 day. The building is quiet and the walls have incredible soundproofing. I didn’t ever hear my neighbors.

Cons

The hallways/stairs could use a bit more attention in terms of keeping them clean.

Advice to the owners

Keep up the great work!

Pros

SW Management owns the whole 78 and 79 street blocks. It's always clean and well maintained. Lots of staff and feels very safe.

Cons

Front desk manager is not very kind. Packages sometimes get stolen from vestibules (I think this is a common thing anymore). If you want to break a lease be prepared to pay. They are zero flexibility on this.
