Reviews

Former tenant·3 weeks ago

Well maintained art deco building

Pros

- caring staff that do a great job of keeping the building looking pristine - beautiful lobby, courtyards, roof decks - spacious apartments - very on-top of maintenance

Cons

- expect to occasionally hear neighbors on sides, and above/below - no freight elevator means you may not be able to get large furniture up to apartment

Former tenant·4 months ago

Luxury in central location but with cheap construction

Pros

The staff is nice and accommodating. Good location to explore Manhattan if new or visiting.

Cons

Questionable street, wouldn’t walk alone late at night. Pictures look great but the quality of construction is subpar.
