Unit 815 Pros: The building is beautiful. Many have terraces, the apartments have a lot of light, and the finishes are good (especially for a building that isn't brand new). Probably the strongest thing here is how responsive management is to any maintenance issue. This is by far the most responsive building I've lived in, and the supers deserve all the credit they get. I've gotten responses/resolutions to maintenance issues within 24 hours with almost every issue I've had. There are a lot of amenities (though those are kind of hit or miss--see comment below). Overall, this is a great building (though you do pay for it). Cons: While most of the staff is great, some of the front desk staff can be a little rude. There is one person who is almost always unpleasant to deal with, which is annoying for a building at this pricepoint. While the amenities are numerous, some of them have somewhat restrictive hours and/or maintenance of them isn't the best (the hot tubs were out of service for months for some reason, etc). However, at least there are dedicated people for the amenities to complain to if something goes wrong.

Unit 832 Pros: Great amenities, on-site staff and responsive management. Units are very functional with quality appliances and finishing for the price. Great water pressure, AC, heat, etc. Cons: Package room closed occasionally, many dogs in the building (I have one as well) can mean some dirtiness that is difficult for building to resolve immediately. Don’t think there’s much the building can do though it’s just a lot of people and a lot of pets. Advice to landlord: Maybe hire someone to man the package room

Pros: • The units themselves are nice by New York standards • Close proximity to the J/M/Z (5min) and L trains (10min) • Maintenance is prompt • Consistent utilities like hot water, heating, and electricity • Minimal pests (it’s still NYC, you can only do so much) • The staff is cool and personable if you’re cool and personable with them. Edwin is a great dude • Great roof views for 4th of July or just chilling • Minimal noise between unit walls (but noise does travel between the door/hallway) • Some units have really great views • Great common areas, like the piano, kitchen, rec room, and coffee lounge Cons: • There’s not much to do in the area so people won’t want to travel to you, and you’ll always have to travel • Cost is very high relative to what you’re getting and the area you’re in • Dog poop *everywhere* outside and often on the roof • A lot of the boasted amenities are incomplete, so they go mostly unused • Nickel & Dime pricing on a lot of amenities, including rooftop access when they decide to host events there • Admin office can be unresponsive when it comes to email & resolving over-billing issues • Package room hours & break schedules are inconsistent, so getting a package can be a tedious process of going up and down the elevator throughout the day (the front desk will always get medicine or food deliveries even if there isn’t a package person) • Building wifi isn’t very reliable, especially on the roof. So WFH in the common areas isn’t always realistic if you need to take meetings/video calls or do online work

Pros: The apartments are honestly pretty reasonably priced for what you're getting relative to what else is out there. The gym is extremely nice; while you do pay extra for amenities, it's basically like having a nicer gym than a Crunch Fitness in your lobby. The building maintenance is extremely responsive too. Cons: It kind of feels like living in a WeWork. It's also a bit of a food desert in terms of grocery stores, although they're about to open a Foodtown on the corner.

Pros: The building is like a dorm, you got taken care of greatly by the staff. Amazing amenities. Great thermal performance. Occasionally there is some crazy people around, but most of time people are respective Cons: The building is getting more and more unaffordable. New Management is not really trying to keep old tenants and just want to get high rent.

Pros: - Great Rooftop - Good Central Air - Useful Amenities - Good Quality Washer/Dryer - When the dishwasher broke it was replaced right away Cons: - There seems to be a leak in one of our bathroom walls that has never been fixed - Bowling Alley had some technical difficulties (still fun though!) Advice to landlord: I would advise updating the machines and systems in the bowling alley.
