Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Safe, Quiet, and Beautiful Views

Pros

I really enjoy living at 480 Main St! The building feels incredibly safe and secure, and the neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. The views are beautiful, and the doormen are always friendly, welcoming, and helpful. It's a great place to live, especially if you value safety, privacy, and a relaxing environment.

Cons

No major complaints so far but one thing I would like to mention is that rent is going up every year

Former tenant·1 month ago

Marketed as luxury apts, but not quite

Pros

- renovated apartments - great location - reasonable prices compared to manhattan - some amenities including gym

Cons

- rent spikes - construction - water cuts - neighbors and smoke

Advice to the owners

The landings is a massive complex with thousands of people living in there. The floors that connect the building tend to be louder, upper levels with many less tenants are quieter. The building has had many issues with neighbors who smoke, and there are records of fires in the building. The building is under ongoing renovations - water cuts and construction is common - but management has a physical office with helpful but slightly overworked staff. Marketed as a luxury apartment but far from it - still a decent building to live in. Beware of rent spikes. As renovations continue, the rent has been increasing dramatically year over year, forcing many tenants out.
