The front desk team is super nice

The management sucks and the elevators are constantly broken
It feels like they’re trying to drive old tenets out to charge new ones more

Clean and well run building, management is responsive and attentive to any issues.

Location is a bit far from the nearest subway station.

Please ask that owners curb their pets away from the front door.

Very clean building with a very friendly staff

unfriendly and rude neighbors

Keep up with the good staff

Great location, apartment size

Pay extra for building amenities
Building is poorly maintained, specifically the elevators. At least 1 is out almost every day (at times up to 3 out of 5 are out)
Management is unresponsive when it comes to community concerns

Great views, good staff nice size apts, close to every subway line and Trader Joe’s.

elevators break down constantly which can be a hassle in such a large buildings. Ambulance noise is an issue. Sometimes there’s 10 or 15 passing through all the avenues in 1 hr

Clean
Convenient location
Good layouts
Friendly concierge

Finishes are dated
Had pest control issues for a few months
Currently overpriced

Update the finishes

Full-service building, good staff, well-maintained, management is often responsive to issues. Great units.

- Elevators are often not working
- There was a large roach infestation once that took longer to manage than it should have
- Windows are not very soundproof, and it's a loud intersection

Clean, functional apartment with great views of Fort Greene.

No friendliness among neighbors. Lots of awkward elevator rides. In general people were pretty cold and didn't seem interested in talking to each other.

Flatbush avenue isn't pleasant to live on around there, it's basically a big stroad to the Manhatten bridge.

Package room was disorganized.

Very debatable whether the building is in Fort Greene, I'd consider it solidly in Downtown Brooklyn.

Staff is very friendly and approachable, mailroom and deliveries always stored safely, and maintenance requests are always quickly addressed (including a baby roach infestation from a few years back). The apartments themselves are generally larger than similar luxury buildings in the area. Staff has regularly building community events and things too, which is appreciated!

The elevators are down VERY often, so expect some long wait times if you live in the high-rise apartments. The gym should be included in rent given the price of the rent here, but that's an added amenity fee on top of rent (and can't be signed up for month to month.) It's also frustrating that unless it's a letter or a big oversize package, mail goes to the Amazon hub lockers. That's fine for most people, but if you don't have an Amazon account that makes getting mail a headache.

Please get a new elevator vendor, and please consider including the gym in rent. More people would use it!

I love my location, building staff, cleanliness, my apartment. living here for 5 years

noisy when its windy

Vast majority of staff is excellent - extremely prompt, effective, and polite. Building interiors are kept clean, service requests are handled swiftly, units themselves are functional and neat if not the most modern.

Amenities are also reliably available and clean.

Staff seems to have more leeway than typical - almost always used to better serve tenants but often see odd, sometimes even punitive, behavior. In particular, a very expensive book shipped to me by a client was supposedly returned to sender because the building requires that the listed recipient is a leaseholder. In this case, I was the leaseholder and package recipient; the concierge on duty confused billing address and shipping address. Plus, there was no record of the return shipment, so I was out thousands of dollars and had my work interrupted. In the very rare cases this happened before or since, other staff have kept the packages (ie looked out for the interest of the tenant...) but reminded me of the policy given.

Additionally, the areas near and approaching the entrances are often crowded with groups smoking, playing very loud music on large speakers, blocking paths with their electric scooters / bikes / mopeds / etc, and generally being disruptive. These groups range from local kids mostly minding their business to clearly unstable looking individuals that antagonize and intimidate passersby. Family and friends that visit, especially my sister, mother, any women, have complained to me that they catcall and much more, making them feel unsafe.

Please reign in your staff just a tad, especially on reckless decisions around shipments

The building had beautiful views and OK amenities.

Where to start... The management company was absolutely horrible. There hasn't been a single interaction with them where they were rude and/or dismissive of issues we've had. The AC in out unit never cools down the place, during hot summer days, it gets down to 80 degrees at its lowest. I did the research on the AC unit, and it's rated for an apartment 60% of its size. The management team refused to do anything about it, and based on the size of other units in the building, and talking to other residents, probably about half the units do not cool down. The AC units are also not energy efficient, so to get the temperature of the apartment to 80 degrees, we've received a $1,000 (in a month) energy bill.

My advice: Don't rent a unit over 800 sq. ft., and if you do, then just make sure to add $1,000 to the rent for the summer months as part of your cost of renting if you want to live at a semi-comfortable temperature.

Get better AC units, sell to an owner who actually cares about managing the property and not just sucking money out of your tenants.

Building answers requests immediately to fix broken appliances, shower pressure is incredible, apartments are clean

Despite having a rent stabilized unit, the building is undergoing destabilization and therefore the 421a fees adjust the price to market value, so you are not getting a deal. Tenants only realize this 1 year after signing

Allow negotiation for rent rates

close to all the train lines and the higher apartments has great views of manhattan

Older building with cracks on the wall. Constant broken elevators

Very fast maintenance response times, sometimes in minutes. Adequate elevator coverage - 3 elevators for 13 floors. Reliable system for packages (in locker or storage room) and food deliveries (to your door).

Loud HVAC units. Heating is unreliable. Noise from the Lincoln Tunnel can be overwhelming.

The staff are incredible and the views are the best in Manhattan in my time living in the neighborhood. Studio/1bhk perfect for 1 person with rare visitors

THE 429 SURCHARGE IS INSANE! The closets are ridiculously small and some parts hard to access. If you're not a new NYC resident, it's going to be impossible to fit your stuff in here.

You have plenty of room behind hollow walls to increase storage space in the building. Alternatively, if storage options are made available like in a lot of buildings that would be great. And don't tack on surprise charges on rent. Include it in your gross.

Very responsive maintenance, good security, newish appliances

Had a lot of problems with kitchen sink backing up (big issue on lower floors), whole building had a roach problem for a bit but I think it’s resolved now

This has been such a great building. Maintenance is responsive and quick and we love all of the front desk associates. Personally have not had a bad experience.

The building is between 10 & 11 ave. Drawback is in the winter when it is cold it is extremely windy and cold.

In general the units are super quiet/quite large for the neighborhood, having a split elevator bank is nice, maintenance and concierge staff are amazing. Amenities are updated, and packages are well-kept. Management has been great with hosting community events every month.

The garbage disposals aren't the best-maintained, and we had roach issues all summer despite us being super careful (although this is the first year we've had pests).

Good location and building and most amenities, and the maintenance and front desk workers are wonderful.

Had to sue the company for the flooding damage they caused. Leasing office and legality of the lease is horrible. Made it impossible to even find out what our mandatory renters insurance COMPANY was let alone talk to anyone. They let issues with the building get INSANELY bad and wait for people to leave in large quantities before they deal with it. A million lawsuit-worthy issues were constantly popping up. Mostly people just didn't want to bother and left but they are definitely in many disputes.
