The Residences At Worldwide Plaza

Staff is super friendly and helpful, building was recently renovated, neighbors are all very respectful, close to major subway lines

I did have one cockroach problem but the building took care of it immediately and then I never saw them again

Most of front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is great. Roof decks are scenic but underutilized

Elevators always broken, rarely 4 in working condition. Plaza is pretty noisy and has gotten progressively more unsafe and busy. Building is in need of renovation, recent hallway and lobby remodels helped. Roof decks could use better furniture

Building staff were great and responsive; my unit faced the courtyard and was so quiet; condo building so depends on the owner but mine was great

The floors were a bit thin (my upstairs neighbor left their alarm clock on when they went out of town and I could hear the beeping); fire alarm in the kitchen easily went off which made it hard to cook sometimes

The staff at the building is very good - very proactive in delivering your packages and discarding large recyclable items/garbage. The location is convenient and close to major subway stations.

Water pressure is ok for the 2bed apartment we are in. If one showers, the other water pressure will be low. Sometimes the surrounding area could be loud.

Great, warm friendly staff
Prompt garbage management
They literally will packages up to your door
Beautiful views on the city and Hudson, great sunlight if you're in sun, east or west facing apartment
Amazing location, literally 5-10min walk away from virtually every major subway line
Nice Rooftop that no one uses, felt like a private roof most days/nights
Beautiful plaza that you can sit, relax, work in during the warmer months

Expensive
You have to tip staff at winter holiday and probably each time they help you with you something big (like you technically don't HAVE to, but really you should bc they do a LOT for you)

Doorman and front desk very nice and helpful. Building recently upgraded hallway

Water pressure could be better

* friendly staff
* laundry/garbage almost every floor
* clean

* paying $450/mth for AC in the summer with new PTAC units. haven't been able to figure out if there's something else going on
* minimal amenities

Building staff was always great and on top of things, 24/7 front desk presence, building issues were resolved promptly. Nice private courtyard for tenants and decent roof in the middle of Hell's Kitchen. Laundry and trash on floor was convenient.

Condominium building, so ymmv depending on the unit owner/landlord. Large AC units next to windows which can flood if not properly maintained.

- reliable and kind doormen and staff
- 2 spacious terraces
- 2 laundry rooms on every floor
- courtyard garden
- common spaces well maintained
- location (2 mins > away from A/C/E)
- never* saw a critter/vermin

- No indoor lounge space for residents

THE STAFF. Super caring and for such a large building, they truly know their residents and offer a personalized experience, so to speak. The building was always clean and any maintenance requests (I had maybe 2 in 2.5 years and nothing major) are handled promptly. I rented directly from a unit owner and she was always responsive as well. Sun decks are great :)

To be fair, I was on a lower floor and faced the plaza between 49th and 50th, and with two restaurants there it could get noisy, even through the night. It’s a busy area. The only thing that truly drove me crazy was the sound of the pipes in the walls - that loud clanging sound as they heat up. It’s LOUD. But I don’t think it’s anything the building can control, so no points deducted - just beware if you’re a light sleeper!

Keep it up! I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and I do hope the neighborhood has recovered from COVID and is bright and bustling again!

Doorman and concierge staff are super friendly, neighbors aren't too loud, building is well maintained

Carpets in the hallways are a bit old and could be changed

Great location
Good light

Terrible owner and broker duo.
Stay away from Amanda Becchio as broker and Shu Fen(her colleague). They represent owners like the one of unit 21C at worldwide place 350 w 50 Street.
The glass and vanity are broken in the apartment, paint in terrible condition and the window in the bedroom w a massive crack. That is a safety hazard!!!!!!
Cannot believe they can rent a condo apartment w all these very significant red flags in place, and have the cheek to say this is how the owner wants to rent it.
Well, the owner needs to wake the hell up, and offer the basic Courtesy that is offered in buildings far less prestigious than this one!
Gosh!!!!

Be a decent landlord/lady and show some respect to your tenants.

Great responsive staff, management is fair and reasonable, not too noisy and great location. Building has also been well maintained. The rooms get alot of sunlight

Lots of school kids hang out in square which can get rowdy

All the staff (doormen, handymen, concierges, porters, and more) are amazing. The buildinglink portal is very convenient and works well for submitting repair requests and for engaging in a forum with fellow residents.

The property managers/management company can be very difficult to get a hold of. Although the building is post-war, my particular condo unit was a little dated and had build quality deficiencies. That could definitely vary from unit to unit, though, as each unit is owned by a different landlord.

The resident manager is helpful, but never picks up his phone and rarely answers emails. The property manager is responsive, but can be unhelpful.

This is a condo, so you are renting from an owner, the staff is really good, the place is clean and maintained well.

The elevators are always broken. They building needs to open up the stair well and allow people to walk up the stairs if they choose. The heat is not that good. In the 2nd floor, the floors are always ice cold and the heat is not strong enough to heat them up.

Some bathrooms are outdated and need to be updated. Need to do something about the floors that are cold.

Package delivery alerts, maintenance crew, clean

Rooftop access was blocked for far too long with no good reason
