Review Summary for Waterside Propco LLC
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenant reviews for buildings managed by WATERSIDE PROPCO LLC reveal a mixed management experience. Residents praise the friendly and helpful doormen and maintenance staff, with many highlighting the cleanliness of apartments and the strong sense of community. However, frequent complaints include slow and unresponsive management, delayed maintenance, high rent hikes, and issues with utilities and building amenities. Location is seen as both a benefit for its views and quietness but also a drawback due to limited transit options. Many renters advise management to improve responsiveness, enhance communication, and reconsider rent increases to retain long-term tenants.

Almost 5 years living here
Former Tenant
Pros:
Bus stop below the building and apartment view. Doorman and maintenance crew are really good!
Cons:
Overpriced, no longer has the amenities it should for the price they charge. High electricity bill and high rent increases year after year.
Advice to owner:
The electricity and the increasing prices will start driving people away. There are not even events as before to compensate for the cost.

Spend 15 days/yr cleaning up waste, sewer water flood from unmanaged property
Former Tenant
Pros:
Doorman are great!
Cons:
If you are looking to spend 15 days a year cleaning up waste, sewer and rain water flooding on your walls, floors, cabinets because Brookfield can't manage the property? Waterside will make your dreams come true!
Advice to owner:
Exit Waterside or change mngmt approach, team

Brookfield Properties Nightmare Owners and Management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Spacious apartments. Beautiful views. M34a bus right outside of the building.
Cons:
Extremely high rent renewal amounts each year. Brookfield will attempt to raise your rent by $1k a month each year. No one can stick around past 1 or 2 years. Management owns the energy company Metergy which provides the electricity. Bills are anywhere from $400.00 to $1,000.00 per month. Brookfield has petitioned the city to allow them to make a bigger profit off of the energy. It is being voted on in 2 weeks. Folks will see their energy bills go up by 48%. Moving trucks every day because no one can stick around unless you are a settling tenant or on Section 8. Even those that applied through Housing Connect - NYC Affordable Housing, are being forced out due to the yearly high rent renewal amounts. The elected officials have been contacted by residents and have been on the Waterside property due to many complaints by tenants of unethical billing.
Advice to owner:
Get out!! You are destroying what use to be a beautiful community.

1 yr lease
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building staff (doormen, maintenance, etc) were nice. The views of Manhattan and the river are phenomenal. Feels separate from the hustle and bustle of midtown.
Cons:
You are so separated from the city. Totally reliant on the bus. Management is pretty bad. They never fix anything on time. I submitted issues with ac unit 4 times and they didn’t come to fix it until I threatened to call 411, twice. And then it broke again.

Excellent Location Nice People live here. EXPENSIVE location
Former Tenant
Pros:
Excellent neighbors and safe location
Cons:
High Rents and Increases are difficult to swallow
Advice to owner:
Please be reasonable on annual rent increases for NYU Students. Going up $1200 per month is unreasonable... Please evaluate and reconsider as we would love to continue for a 5-7% increase. Thanks

Advice to owner:
Work on making the plaza a pleasant place to be, bring back some sort of cafe/food option. Work out a deal with the present on site grocery to improve quality, cleanliness and price hiking. Ramp up shuttle bus schedule so tenants can get off the island…
