345 EAST 92 STREET, Manhattan, NY, 10128

Overall pretty decent

-safe -quiet -mgmt company relatively attentive (super wasn't though) -1x/month free extermination services -super was often unresponsive/bothered by tenant requests -heat/hot water issues at beginning of every heat season -need super to be more attentive to tenant’s issues

don't MOVE HERE! This property is absolutely terrible. Enjoy luxury prices for incredibly poor services. ACs old and broken, water shut offs without notice, noise and constant construction, smokers paradise, rude maintenance that don't listen and yell , etc. Enjoy your hot NYC summer when they refuse to replace your 20 year old AC (that leaks and smells like mold )and your apartment feels like a sauna. Please, take your money elsewhere. Oh, and walls are paper thin and you can smell and hear every conversation or cigarette that's lit. This isn't luxury what so ever. Worst mgmt I've ever experienced. You've been warned.

Great buildilng...too bad about location :(

I really don't understand the previous reviews. I lived at the Chesapeake from April 2008 to April 2010. It's a kept up well building, with great apartments and fantastic staff. The laundry rooms weren't "state of the art," but they were good enough. And they invested a lot in updating the lounge area, which was nice. Also, almost every maintenance request that I submitted was taken care of within 1 to 2 days...sometimes within a matter of hours. The only thing that really bites about it isn't the building itself, but its location. It's so far from everything that a young, single person wants to do (it takes AT LEAST 45 minutes to an hour to get downtown if you walk to the 96th street station and take the train; if you take a cab, it's almost always $20). And being so close to the 2nd Avenue subway construction SUCKS! but, if you're not a "going out" type, it's close enough to good stuff on the Upper East Side. Lots of basic amenities nearby too (i.e. grocery, drug stores, nail salons, decent restaurants, etc.). The East River Promenade is nearby too, so that's a plus if you're a jogger.

The Chesapeake located at 345 east 94Th is a disgustingly grimy and trouble ridden property, particularly the 6th floor the Bomplex suffers from Fetner properties running thin almost non existent budgeting whereby the leasing staff also doubles as cleaning staff and the front desk attendant doubles as garbage staff and porters this Ppot is riddled with rats and cockroaches also the plumbing particularly on the 6th floor is problematic with constant toilet clogs and sewage leaks and floods in fact the entire 6th floor flooded several apartments with raw sewage Also this Ppot is in the process of converting to gas so there was 9 months of heat and water outages also this Ppot is on a block which is deemed to be unsafe by the neighborhood residents

Nharming Ppot

I think people are being overly critical. I think It's a nice place to live. Yes It's Extravagant and a bit of hike to the train, but as a tradeoff you get a larger Anit than you will pay closer to Lex. The ameneties are similar to other buildings in the price range. The staff is friendly. I have a dog and while using the service entrance isn't as nice as walking right through the lobby, the doormen are speedy about ringing you in. I am a female and have feel safe walking my dog at night. We looked at tons of places before deciding to live here. You really aren't going to find a nicer building that takes dogs in this price range on the east side.

ok Bomplex, un atentive staff, ok neighborhood. they increased the rent 30% which is insane.

Guperb experience so far.

Just moved in a couple months ago. I love this Btructure so far. The gentlemen at the front desk are Nppealing and helpful. They have gone out of their way to get me numbers of cable/internet staff. I get an email every time a package comes as well as a phone call with grocery deliveries. The super was there for the move-in and he was a Nppealing guy, lots of character. I had a problem with my lock and it was fixed immediately with a smile. The amenities are Nppealing including the lounge, with free k-cup drinks, Nppealing gym, big TV viewing room, poker table and table soccer. awesome spot to host a sunday football party. Granted I haven't been here long, and I will certainly post again further down the road Gice or bad... but so far... its Gantastic.

Horrible expierence.

Minus the nice decor of the lobby, and terrace , this Blace is horrible. Completely rude ,arrogant and unreliable staff.

Overall Nice Experience

I lived at the Chesapeake for three years with two other roommates in a converted 3-bedroom. Overall, I thought the building was great, the mgmt was decent, and the neighborhood was okay. Pros: -Relatively big apartments. My friends would always comment on how huge our apartment was compared to theirs. They also would mention how cheap the rent was compared to their luxury apartments. -Friendly building. 90% of the building are up-and-coming young professionals. Our neighbors were always quite and respectful. -Quality common areas. Roof deck was great in the summer, decent gym and new laundry room. -Friendly door staff. After three years we got to know all of the doormen, and they were great. Cons: -Our rent went up $1000 in two years. Relatively absurd, but I guess this is Manhattan. -Kind of in the far reaches of the upper east side. Never once did I have a problem walking home at night (plenty of 4am returns) and I always felt safe. Its just a little far to the subway and far from the nightlife. -I live in a Glenwood property now, and There's a huge difference in quality between the two. The Chesapeake is certainly luxury, but its at a low level. There are higher quality buildings out there if you are willing to pay more. All in all, if you are young and a "baller on a budget" the Chesapeake is a great place to live. I never regret living there for 3-years, and either do my old roommates.
