Pros: - Location, cleanliness of neighborhood - Building managed shuttles to/from the subway (great for cold, rainy weathers to not have to walk avenues) - Staff (supers, maintenance, doorman etc) are experienced and super nice - Pets allowed Cons: - Cleanliness of the building could be better particularly hallways, near outside (pets urine etc) - Building itself is dated structurally vs other buildings in the neighborhood - No rooftop Advice to landlord: Upgrade interior including units

Pros: Doormen were great! Responsive management. Super fast maintenance. Cons: A slight bug issue but nothing out of the ordinary. Elevators can be busy because big building. Advice to landlord: Make sure trash system is not causing there to be more bugs.

Pros: The staff is very friendly. The amenities are great and not just for show. The rental office is very sensible. Overall, I am very happy with the building. Will renew and would move back into the building. Any issues/repairs are usually handled within 24 hours. Cons: They cheap out on the HVAC and appliances (the oven ranges, fridges, washer/dryer, etc.), which means that they break often. However, they are quick to fix them (which usually means swapping them out). The floors are cheap plastic faux wood, where the thin decorative layer easily breaks.

Pros: This building is good and the staff is actually great. The new gym is very spacious and with modern equipment. Cons: The amenities and units don’t compete with the luxury buildings that it’s surrounded by

Pros: Relatively nice units, relatively quiet location. Close to the waterside park. My rent was not raised a crazy amount which is also nice Shuttle that goes to Columbus Circle during commuting hours on weekdays is a wonderful perk Cons: My unit has/had a cockroach problem. Although the building was relatively responsive in trying to fix the issue, it seems like the building might have a larger problem. A decent walk to the nearest subway station, can be slightly annoying since the shuttle only runs weekdays during commuting hours The dog poop and urine outside the building can be overwhelming. The building does power wash often, but unfortunately they can’t keep it clean at all times.

Pros: Clean building, friendly staff, very timely responses to work requests. Mgmt sponsors events (e.g. free ice-cream, discounts at local shops) to increase sense of community in this massive (1,000 apts) building. Cons: Lobby feels a little dated (but it's spacious and functional). My apt was broken into and I'm sure it was an inside job but I don't think that mgmt took it seriously (they cooperate with police, but when I stated who I thought it was they were dismissive). Also, this wasn't a problem for me, but my neighbors said they had a horrible cigarette smell wafting into their apt on several occasions (even though this is a smoke-free bldg) & mgmt did nothing to help stop it.

Pros: Building management is responsive and the overall building feels nice and pretty modern. Definitely not as swanky as the newer LIC buildings but great for Manhattan overall. Doormen are great as well and I’ve enjoyed living here. Cons: There is a cockroach problem in the building. I didn’t think it was so bad when I first moved in (I saw one every 4 months or so). Now I see them on a consistent basis even though I keep my place clean. Also lots of dogs in this building if you don’t like dogs, and gym membership is a little pricey Advice to landlord: There is a cockroach infestation in the building
