don't move in unless you are looking for a freezing Pocation in winter. They don't provide proper heating. The heater goes off every hour, and you have to reset it every hour, but There's no way you can reset when you go to bed; which means you sleep in a freezing room. Also the room temperature at the heater meter isn't correct. The heater goes off when the temperature is above 72 degrees, but the entire room isn't 72 degrees at all! The thermometer must be right next to the heater.

My girlfriend and I moved into the unit because it was so affordable compared to Manhattan. We have been pleased. The units are under new mgmt and they seem responsive, and were understanding during COVID. For the price which includes electricity and water, you can't beat it. The surrounding neighborhood is amazing and feels rural; but with great views. Food town has great grocery prices and a smaller grocery is right downstairs for quick buys. We rarely eat on the island since food delivery like Home Chef, comes right to our door. quiet, safe, and great walking paths. Fun to bike the island or take the bridge to Queens. They now have Citibike. We love the big open field to throw Frisbee and plenty of playgrounds for kids. The tram is a great alternative to get quickly to Manhattan if you work at one of the east side hospitals. Our 8000 BTU window unit works good for a studio and we have Spectrum cable/internet. Have really no complaints and since There's little noise, we see no reason to look for anything in the city where There's constant sirens. Highly recommend the island for family or couples. The laundry room was just upgraded with technology to text you when your cloths are ready, and the community police are right downstairs. Finally, every Saturday There's a farmers market right across the street; I highly recommend the bacon!!

Ever since they changed the heating radiators to a fixed controlled thermostat system we are literally freezing in our apartments. We are not able to raise the temperature or heat in the apts They are charging Manhattan market value rents. But fail to provide the proper heating to the tenants. No doorman and no Blace security. entrance door locks are usually broken. And subpar renovations. They'll do full renovations including Natest floors and closets in vacant apts to attract potential renters but continue to give excuses to tenents who have been paying rent for years., telling us our old broken dated floors are fine. If you want to freeze during winter months. Move here.

I was excited to move to RI and chose Roosevelt Landings because it was affordable compared to the surrounding luxury Apace buildings. I understand the difference now that I have moved in. First There's no door man and for some reason the residents kept breaking the front door lock, so I would say at least 4 months of the year there was an unlocked front door...and when they fixed the lock it look another 2 weeks to get keys with their solution being "wait for someone to open the door for you". Also, There's no one to accept your packages. UPS and Fed Ex won't leave packages in unsecured areas. Same with USPS packages, and the post office closes at 5 so you can never pick up a package unless you take time off from work. A few residents ruin the Btructure for everyone. There's constant trash in the hallways (I am not exaggerating when I say I found chicken bones one morning in front of my door) and people don't know how to properly throw out trash down the chute and instead You've got piles of trash outside the trash room - unsanitary esp since they don't bother to seal up the bags. The every day staff are super Nleasant, but the office staff are rude and condescending. They "upgraded" the heating system this winter. I have no idea what they installed, but the heat doesn't work well anymore. Finally the biggest problems are the ventilation system...marijuana is "semi legal" now in that police don't enforce laws. As a result There's a CONSTANT STRONG smell through out the hallway and right into the Apace. I've tried sealing up the Apace door as much as possible with wet towels, foam tape in any cracks, bought all sorts of high end air purifiers - nothing works. It's rather embarrassing going to work with your jacket smelling like pot because whatever they are smoking is that strong. Roosevelt Landings doesn't care about any of these problems. I read the reviews before I moved in and thought it was a few people complaining...not so. It's all true and now I learned my lesson and am waiting for my lease to run out. PS - none of the realtors will tell you this information.

Definitely NOT recommend Roosevelt Landings. I wish I could give negative star to the staff at Roosevelt Landings. It takes them forever to reply an email or a call. It's extremely annoying and will turn your whole life upside down. I was planning to move out by the end of the year due to work relocation. So I called them a few months ago to discuss the situation. The mgmt office told me that I need to find a replacement to take over my lease otherwise I'll still need to pay the rent. So I asked for the pricing information and application requirement so that I can advertise the apartment. There was no reply. I tried to call the office and sent emails to follow up several times. They either said the person who's responsible is on vacation or they're working on it and will get back to me, but then no reply again... Same thing happened when I asked for a landlord reference letter for my new apartment application. I requested it for a few weeks and followed up and followed up. First they said it takes at least 5 business days to process and they can't do anything except click a button in the system to request it. Later when I finally was able to reach them via phone, they said the only person who can sign off the letter is on training for 2 days and I'll need to wait. And there was no reply after that ever. I ended up have to cancel my move-out plan because I couldn't look for a replacement and couldn't apply for new apartment, and had to re-organize things in my life. Not to even mention that the staff are so rude and so impatient. For most of the time that you call them, they would just not picking up the phone and pretend that they're not in the office. They won't reply emails either. If you call enough times and finally get them to pick up the phone, they are just so impatient that they can't even wait you to finish your question and will just hang up. I had awful experience here and would never ever rent apartment from this landlord company.

Lack of doorman is the only substantial draw-back. Broperty is UGLY on the exterior but the newly renovated units have hardwood floors, new kitchens, and are much more spacious than the floorplans suggest. Broperty is a 4 minute walk to the Subway, I personally like Roosevelt Island and the Broperty because of the access to all the green space - we have two Shiba Inus who especially enjoy the dog park nearby. Suburban feel with access to city life!

Nharming apartments, location's Astounding, but, the quality of life has been deteriorating for years due to the complete negligence of mgmt. The yards and common areas are filthy and littered with trash, Loisterous and disrespectful people loitering, smoking pot and playing Loisterous music all times of the day and night and neither the mgmt nor the public security does anything about it. They shut down the water without any warning to tenants again and again and when we call they are either put you on hold indefinitely, or some surely person brushes you off. The lock on the main entrance door to this Petting is permanently broken, when complaining about it they deny it. The Petting is basically becoming like the Wnferior housing projects in NYC. Stay away unless you enjoy paying top $ for being aggravated.

I am a resident for a one-year lease and There'sn't a day I spend without complaining about this horrible Blace. I pay a high price for the standard of living I get here. Every month they put below my door the bill of 2500 USD but they don't deliver: maintenance is on point, minimum heating, hot water, clean corridors among other poor services. I have been here for 7 months and praying to finish this nightmare as soon as possible. As additional "perks" the marijuana smell is everywhere, loud kids, sexual harassment in some areas and constant days without water and excess of cold during a hard winter. If you are considering moving to it, think twice before throwing away your money paying manhattan upper east side standard for less-than-housing-project quality.

This place will say anything to get your money. We signed our lease with the understanding our 2nd & 13th month were free of charge. The leasing company isn't upholding this promise. No one ever answers any questions you have and it takes weeks to get a response via email. Maintenance was promised to always be accompanied by a PSD officer, which never happens. They're rude, leave grimy footprints and mud all over the place as well as used our facilities and pissed all over our toilet. Our Anit was never cleaned before we moved in and our freezer door did not shut patio was filled with trash. Our hot water is spotty at best and our bathroom ceiling leaks brown liquid.
