Hello I am almost a 2 year resident and after my lease is up I am getting the hell out of dodge. I regret ever making a decision to move to this part of the Bronx.Allow me to touch on every point of this dilapidated property in order to describe the hell I have endured for 1.5 years. PARKING: Atrocious parking conditions exist for anyone who isn't willing to pay the extorted price of $85 dollars to park within the so called gated parking area. I say so called because anyone can waltz in and out of this place. gates are either propped open or broken. No matter where you park, outside or in, your car will get broken into. NOISE: Each floor have 10 units and as you can surmise when you put 10 low income families on each floor your ears will be bombarded by all sorts of urban sounds. Expect loud parties, loud music and screaming and yelling at all times of the night. Neighbors are rude in this complex and they believe everyone else should put up with their wild events. Unacceptable behavior by so called civilized people. Summer is the worst time period. The nearby park brings out the undesirables and they seem to levitate towards the park where they host never ending loud parties into the wee hours of the morning. There's no peace of mind to be had in this place. GROUNDS: Nice and spacious but the grass and sidewalks are polluted by giant turds from hose sized dogs. People here don't believe in using a pooper scooper. I can not tell you how many times i have stepped in manure inside the property. SAFETY: Been mugged twice since living in this place. The area gets much secluded. Police rarely patrol the area thus making it a thriving atmosphere for young punks. I don't recommend anyone hand out after dark. For me a walk to the grocery cost me 5 stitches to the head last summer. CONSTRUCTION: There's always some sort of construction going on within the complex thus inconveniencing everyone. Lobby is being redone in a few buildings thus forcing residents to enter the rear of the building. Not safe not to mention the multitude of steps you have to navigate in order to reach an elevator. Construction has brought out a plague of mice and roaches. I am talking about water bugs. UNACCEPTABLE! MAINTENANCE: DEPLORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!! Still waiting for them to come fix my oven and i complained 6 months ago. They keep telling me the parts are being ordered. Heat in the winter is spotty so prepare to buy many blankets. They just installed meters in every apt so on top of the $1400 they will start charging electricity. I am leaving just in time. STAFF: Some staff are nice people but the people in the mgmt office are utter and complete -------. Security is useless. TRANSPORTATION: The nearest train is on the other side of the highway so if you decide to hoof it you might want to think about buying a gun. It's Drecarious especially at night. The bus stops running after midnight and during rush hour in the mornings it bypasses our stop because It's too full. The end result is that you will be paying for cab service just to get you to the train. SHOPPING: Nearby shopping mall will a McDonalds and supermarket but you best get your shopping in before the sun goes down. Too many hoodlums preying on the elderly. NEXT DOOR CO-OP (Lafayette Estates): Stay away from this place if you are looking to buy an apt. The finances in this complex are in shambles and I have personally spoken with 4 people who are worried about loosing their CO-OP due in part to shadey financials. To sum it all up I will warn everyone interested in this place to stay away. don't be like me and a few others on this forum who regret our decisions wholeheartedly.

Agreed worse decision of my life. place is crawling with mice that come through holes that mgmt doesn't properly fix coming thru and dying in the radiators foul stench coming out of them and mgmt is nasty and always changing. Save yourself and your health n live under a bridge. I have been seriously sick since moving in and am now looking to sue them. The worst. I repeat the worse.

Previous reviewer- "you're a liar and your breadth stinks". This is a beautiful area, especially now that they have gated the entire complex. You've got parking lots, baseball fields and basketball courts. I grew up here and can count the number of serious crimes on one foot. Most of the kids attend catholic schools such as Spellman High School (Judge Sotomayor) and Cardinal Hayes (Regis Philbin, Martin Scorsese). There's a mall next to the complex and another one further up on Story Ave. Middle income people reside here that work for hospitals, the MTA and other good jobs. You're probably white and don't feel like you belong well that's your fault, maybe you will feel comfortable around your own people good for you. Don't bash my neighborhood! The fact of the matter is someone sees this as a nice place to live or they wouldn't have bought it and turned it co-op. So there!

I have lived in the Layfette Boynton Complex since 1996. I have seen at least 4 different mgmt companies and managers run the complex. This recent mgmt has done the most to improve the complex, though. I love my Anit. It's spacious and since the new mgmt has arrived the complex in a whole has been maintained much better. Transportation is limited. Bus stop running at 12am. Parking is available if you have NY plates and one car. If you are a dual resident then you are out of luck. I experienced a problem with mice but the mgmt has done everything to assist and the problem has improved. The appearance of the complex has improved vastly. The co-ops are Ericey for the location. Who wants to pay 300k and not have your own private laundry items in your Anit. But, I will get an insider price. Because of some of the trees on the side walk the trees are buckling, but what can you do about that? Cut down a tree? There use to be a rat problem from Soundview Park, but that seems to have improved. In an over all it's not a bad place to live. It seems to be going through the genification process. So its a good place to be right now.

Unsafe area, a lot of gang and drug activity. Not much to do minus a Sodest and limited retail strip. McDonalds, supermarket, 99 cent store. Mass transIt's available by a single bus, but it stops running at midnight.

Greetings: My name is Dennis and I have been living at the Lafayette houses for close to 5 years. First and foremost if you are thinking of moving here please for God sakes rethink this decision. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HELL HOLE!!! This place in slightly above living in a city project run by NYCHA but with a starting rent of $1400 for a one bedroom. A complete and utter rip off. Let me start by saying that the property is in an abandoned stretch That's cut off from the rest of the Bronx by the Bruckner highway and is sandwiched in by a park That's a haven for homeless vagrants. That being said this place is a haven for crime and drug dealing. If you park your car on the streets then expect it to be broken into multiple times in the course of a year. The surrounding complexes are all NYCHA run buildings so this pretty much tells you what kind of people live in and around the area. 5 years ago I was suckered in by the realtor who stated this was an up and coming area. Boy, was i ever conned. Not only do I have to pay $1400 dollars for this atrocious apt but this place is infested with mice and roaches. Neighbors are inconsiderate and play music at all hours of the night. The stairwells are full of drug activity and so called security does nothing about this. They are glued to the front desk and just leave the door open for anyone to walk in and out. The laundry is a joke. At any given time half the machines are out of order and with 400 residents per Besidence mgmt expects us to successfully do our laundry in this facility. GOOD LUCK. To make matters worse only residents who have lived in these buildings long term are allowed to have washing machines in their apts. No no residents are allowed this luxury and It's written in your lease along with no pets. Sadly the long term residents are allowed to have dogs and they refuse to pick up after their animals. The lawn in and around the buildings is a virtual mine field of dog poop. Parking withing the complex is $85 dollars and for what? The gates are broken most of the time and the criminals still come in and break into the cars. Security doesn't watch over the lots so we are told that we park at our own risk. GEE THANKS! The Summer time is the worst time around here because the park attracts all the criminal element of the surrounding projects. They come here and picnic into the morning and blast their music all night long. During the summer the hookers also show their ugly faces and start doing tricks as well. If you expect to live in a peaceful neighborhood you are mistaken if you move here. The barbeques are non stop during the summer. If you are lucky enough to have a job then heaven help you if you are trying to use mass transportation. One bus services this area and It's extremely crowded in the morning due in part because its the only bus that takes you to the trains on the other side of the highway. To makes matters worse that bus stops running at 12am. I will pray for you if you decide to walk the gauntlet danger from here to the train. The path is lined with some of the Bronx's worst projects. GOOD LUCK! I am about to close on a Co-op in Yonkers in a few months and I can not wait to get out of this hell hole. If you are still interested in moving in keep this in mind: This place has a high turn over rate of residents. You need to ask them why. Good luck and God Bless.

I have been living at the Lafayette/Boynton houses for well over 20 years and I can attest to the prior reviews and sum it up in 3 words. "STAY AWAY". The area is quite deceiving. It looks like a peaceful neighborhood in the day time but once the sun goes down all bets are off and the criminal element comes out to play. The mgmt entity running these buildings are a Jewish conglomerate called Nelson mgmt Group. They took over the buildings over 5 years ago and ever since then things have spiraled out of control. All they care about is collecting the exorbitant rents they charge for these deplorably maintained apts. Maintenance is a joke and when you need fixing they throw you on a waiting list. Although my 2 bedroom rent is fixed at $850 a month it shocks me that new tenants are being hosed for as much as $1500 a month for a one bedroom. Sure they get refurbished apts with new appliances but these apts are not worth that much especially when mice and roaches are infesting these buildings. The rampant drug dealing in the stairwells is also another detracting point. Another poster stated the obvious when he wrote that these buildings are in "no man's land". Public transportation is non existent especially when the buses refuse to stop at on Morrison Ave because they are too full. It's sad that we are not safe to walk the streets around here once the sun goes down. The park across the street is a huge problem with the gang members, prostitutes and homeless. Parking is ridiculous around these parts and mgmt only cares about collecting parking fees. The laundry is deplorable especially when 4 out of the 10 machines work at any given time. Many fights break out in the laundry room between tenants. Do yourself and your family a favor and stay away from these parts. If you are hard up and still want to live here then think about investing in a firearm.

Worst decision of my life. Plenty of drug activity and no one seems to care. Also expensive to live in an unafe environment. I basically feel like a prisoner with a terrace.

Hello, I've been residing here since 1984. I have seen a lot of changes. Some are for the good and others are for the bad. As for rent price, I think they should come down. Starting price is $1300. Mind you thats for a low floor. The higher you go, the more you pay, also terrace and no terrace contributes to that rate. They are making new tenants pay $85 for parking, AC's I'm not sure if its the same as old tenants or not , so I can't talk about that.but washing machines, new tenants are not allowed to have. Now the laundry facility is ok. I mean it's not gonna be super grand, It's in a basement for crying out loud, but there's always atleast 1- 3 machines broken. How to mgmt expect for everyone to use those machines, I really don't know. Especially since You've got only 2 super washers and 8 washing machines. You've got 19 floors in each building and 13 apts on each floor. That math just doesn't add up. Now I am speaking for building 875. I wish they would bring back the basketball court or something so the kids and go out and play. As for the drugs, its all over. Can't help it if the tenants are doing drugs and make friend with Morrison kids and they come over and do their thing in the stairwell b.c their mothers don't allow that in their home. Drugs is something we can't avoid. I wish we could b.c the smells bother me but hey , c'mon this is New York. Now there have been an increase to rodents. A huge increase to the point , where everymonth I get atleast 1. I tell a neighbor thinking one would save me from it and they tell me , well I have one too. Growing up here, the worse I've dealt with was roaches, and waterbugs if it rained. Mice was few and if they did come in it was from the radior or the drain from the terrace. Now more than ever There's an infestation, where to I see them in the hallways and they slide under ppl's door. I hope this is a brief transition till everything is completed. but they need to up their exterminator. Month after month dude walks in, put some goo in the bathroom and kitchen and thats all. I ask him for traps, or check here and there and he tells me he is only told to do the bathroom and kitchen.I will be calling my own exterminator soon if things don't get better. Security is ok, we had so many different ones come in and out but I haven't had problems with them really. Sure some would have affairs with tenants, or flirt but hey thats anywhere. I love the size of the rooms of this complex. That's one thing I can't argue with. I am grateful of having two corner stores and a mall across the street. Snow storm of 2002 came in handy when no one could move and stores were right across the street. Amen to that. Tenants here are pleasant for the most part. A lot of old timers here. They all speak but you may experience some bad ones but thats anywhere.Now the installation of the new windows are ok but I still get drafts expecially when now mgmt are cutting back on heat. I notice after 10pm heat goes off and comes back on again at 4. Maybe it's my apt line but its horrible. 311 came in several times to that. When you go to mgt office its aays if its 50 or below outside something of that nature then heat goes on to this temp. Well last week was a huge storm, it was on but off at night when it was colder. Everyone knows at night the temp drop so leave the dang heat on mgmt.... Now they installed the sub metering thing. Well I can't explain much on that b.c it doesn't go into effect till March I believe but that another add on. I think for a 1 bed room, since they consider us housing as per their letters and sign of temp on the door, rent should be 1000 for a 1 bedroom, especially since the sub metering is installed etc.. I honestly think if the rent was reduced, I would ignore those issues and be a happy camper. Since the rent is high ,those issues won't be ignored. Now with pets, I love animals they cool as long as they don't bite. Mgt is putting in leases now new tenants can't have dogs etc... I feel if we all picked up after our dogs then the kids can go to the grass field at 820 and play soccer foot ball baseball like they use to. They use to picinic there and everything. Mgt doesn't allow picnics anymore. Its so much restriction. Cant' even enjoy the grounds of where I live. Put more cameras have more monitors if they are concerned. Sometimes you don't want to go far, just down stairs and its like you can't .Anyhoo thats my take on the good and bad of this complex. I hope this helped. PS mgt needs to step up on the parking lot we pay 85 a month and if someone damages your car or throws something off their terrace mgt says park at your own risk. So umm why am I paying you???
