Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews highlight buildings managed by ADAM DENSKY vary in quality. While the Water Street property receives glowing reviews for its cleanliness, neighborly environment, and responsive management, the 63rdStreet building faces challenges with water quality, pest control, and noisy surroundings. Suggestions for improvements include addressing maintenance issues promptly and possibly renovating older units. Despite mixed feedback, the Water Street location stands out as a well-maintained and secure option, while the 63rd Street building requires more attention to tenant concerns to enhance the overall living experience.

Not up to par for a doorman building
Former Tenant
Pros:
The doormen were courteous people.
Cons:
My tap water was brown for the entire term of my lease. When running the water, it would come out brown from the kitchen sink about 25% of the time, making it unfit to drink. I submitted complaints to 311. They responded to the complaints that they flushed the main fire hydrants nearby, but the problem persisted. I assume it has more to do with old and rusty water pipes.
The building has a clothes moths problem. They live in the air ducts and were resident to my unit. This problem was not fixed, addressed, or taken seriously by the landlord or management.
I also complained about my extremely old AC/heater unit, which made very loud and disruptive sounds, keeping me awake at night. This was not addressed by management.
Overall, it's also a loud area to live in, especially if you face 3rd avenue. I found that I was sleeping with ear plugs in most of the time considering the traffic noise and heater problems.
