Pros: The apartment building is well maintained. It has a nice lobby when you walk in and very friendly doormen who will make it feel like home. There is a package center, dry cleaning, and even cleaning services all at the building. It is easily accessible to a CVS, Food Emporium and Bryant Park. It also has a large laundry room, gym and public spaces with great views. Cons: Not in a great area of town, next to $1 pizza and a port authority bus stop which attracts a array of clientele. They often use doormen as handymen to fix issues in your apartment. This is also a condo building so my negative experience in this building was related to my landlord. My landlord refuses to give me back my security deposit because she wants to pocket my money. I left it in mint condition and yet she is claiming the normal wear & tear is my fault. For example, she is now charging me for the upgrades she willingly made while I was there, claims the AC was broken despite it being fixed with Freon, and refused to get my dishwasher fixed for the remaining 8 months of my lease. I cannot stress this enough, I do not recommend renting from the owner of 16J.

Pros: Centrally located. Right by Port Authority. Has a nice pool/hot tub that are normally pretty empty (even before Covid-19). 24 hour doormen that are all really great. $1 pizza place right next door. Tons af great restaurants to chose from right up 9th Ave. Only a few minutes from the West Side Highway bike/jogging path so it's easy to get around the city. Building management is very responsive and keep us up to date on any maintenance going on. Cons: Apartment are owned and managed by private owners, not the building, so it's kind of a crazy shoot on how good of a land lord you're going to get. Given the location, there is a lot that goes on at night. Even with the double played windows, you're likely to hear sirens a few time a night.

Pros: Modern building, friendly staff, well cared for and great amenities (pre-COVID). Gas stove, central air, and French windows. Cons: No laundry in unit, fixed package pick up hours (that could be slow) and rugged location due to pandemic driven exodus of homeless vagrants from Port authority and 99 cent pizza store around the corner (in spite of being at the edge of Times Square). Advice to landlord: Replace air and water filters periodically.
