Pros: This building is full of people right out of college who are flexing their units to make it affordable (which can be a pro or con depending how you view it). If you are also in this category it is great, because the building is accommodating of it and it can be nice to live amongst peers. It definitely gives you the opportunity to live in a luxury apartment that you might not otherwise have. The maintenance staff is fast and they are very nice. MOST of the doormen are very helpful. The building is clean. The views in the 2 apartments I had were incredible. The closets are spacious. The appliances are updated and everything is remodeled. Duane Reade is right downstairs. Overall it was a very positive experience. Cons: Most of Cons are not a big deal or are just more circumstantial. I didn't love living in FiDi, but that may not be the case for you. It just felt dark and cold to me since it isn't very residential compared to other neighborhoods. By the time I hit 25, it felt like it was time to move on as new waves of 21 year olds moved in. When you live on the higher floors, you have to switch elevator banks to go the laundry room which is just a slight inconvenience. Some of the doormen can be a little rude at times, but I also understand they have to deal with a lot from tenants. I don't really have much else negative to say about 200 Water.

Unit 3104 Pros: Building was clean and front door staff is always helpful. Amenities are great and building service team is always responsive for break/fixes. Cons: - Building restricts the rooftop unnecessarily, sending emails about no noise, no parties, no alcohol, no glass, etc. If its July 4th, forget about having a great time on the roof as they hire security guards to check your building access, and only allow 1 guest per tenant. - Building sends multiple emails about prohibited marijuana use, no door decorations around holidays, and strictly prohibits gatherings and Halloween parties. - Much like the rest of Manhattan, they will raise your rent year over year and if you try to negotiate with their leasing office they will either ignore your emails and/or give you some sob story. - There are a lot of college students in this building and the walls are pretty thin, so expect to hear a lot of noise bleed over from neighboring tenants. Advice to landlord: Treat your tenants less like children and more like adults
