    Reviews

    Well maintained building, no pest issues.

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The staff are exceptionally attentive and I have never had issues with pests in 1.5 years. Laundry in building.
    Cons:
    I have an obnoxious neighbor, but it is not the fault of the building and seems to be a one-off case. No roof deck; very small outdoor area. Many apartments are very small and don't have full appliances and/or look directly at the wall of neighboring building.
    Advice to owner:
    Keep up the good work!
    Report

    Well Run Co-op

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This building is extremely well run and the staff is wonderful. The building and Tudor city is very pretty and whimsical.
    Cons:
    Roaches are in the drain pipes so have your bathtub drains plugged
    Report

    Responsive super, when you do have an issue they come within 24 hours to address it .
    Cons:
    New laundry room is always having issues/not enough machines for the amount of tenants Walls are very thin, you can hear the neighbors sneeze!
    Advice to owner:
    Invest in better insulation between apartments
    Report

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very well managed

    Report

    Mostly happy to be moving out

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Well-maintained, lots of dog owners, bike room, beautiful building, wonderful doormen
    Cons:
    Board is hawkish, assistant super is watching your every move on the security cameras and is extremely stressful to interact with, difficult and expensive to renew lease after 2 years, our apartment is outdated, renters treated like trash but sounds like coop owners are given more respect.
    Report

    Great building to rent

    Former Tenant

    Professional and friendly doormen Lots of laundry machines Clean Great garbage management
    Cons:
    Not much, I saw a roach in the lobby once 🤷‍♂️
    Advice to owner:
    None

    UWS 1 BR (4W1)

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Really liked the neighborhood and the unit in general
    Cons:
    Response time of the management of the building is slow and the owner of unit was very difficult to get ahold of or work with.
    Advice to owner:
    Coop board to fix management response time
    Report

    Decent exerpience, only minor issues

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    There were some issues upon move-in (broken dishwasher, etc.) but the management team was very response when I submitted work requests through the portal. Building was nice and quiet.
    Cons:
    There were some cockroaches both in my apartment and on the ground floor/lobby area, but that’s probably to be expected in any walk up. Exterminator came every month and provided free spraying and glue traps, which solved my issue.
    Report

    A nice building, honking at night is an issue

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Doormen and building staff are really nice and friendly, nice roof deck, common spaces kept clean, elevators never break down (and not long wait times), friendly neighbors, convenient location, nice neighborhood
    Cons:
    If you face 63rd street (north) horrible traffic backs up at all hours of the night and sometimes (especially when there is construction on the bridge) there is very loud and non-stop honking all night. If your unit faces south this may not be an issue.
