Pros: it's a large building with good amenities (lounge, outdoor deck, gym) so you have what you need, which is nice! 24/7 person at the front desk, in-unit laundry Cons: maybe it was just my apartment, but the rooms were very small. the package system was inefficient because you can only get packages 8:30am-5:30pm Mon-Sat, which is when most people are at work. the entire building is just kind of dark as well? Advice to landlord: fix the packaging system please!

Pros: elevator, amenities, easy to pay, descent location, package room, doorman, clean, close to major subways and battery park/the pier Cons: A lot of people party in this building, especially in the summer. Non residents drunk in the elevator with drinks going to party on the roof. Maintenance is not very responsive, we had a burner on the stove go out that was never fixed. False sense of security, yes there is a doorman but someone was murdered in this building in 2021 (look it up) and they walked right by the security. It is a decent building, but mostly fresh out of college 3 kids crammed in a studio vibes. Advice to landlord: Take better care of security in this building. More efforts to prevent obviously drunk teenagers who don't live here to go to the roof.

Pros: Easy to Flex Wall, great concierge, two elevators, rooftop with grills, dishwasher/in unit laundry, responsive and incredibly kind maintenance staff, in building mail room and dry cleaning. Payment is done through an app Cons: Management in the building, especially the leasing office, will not do anything and need to be constantly prodded for them to work in the slightest or even send you an email back. Expensive for what you’re getting. Security staff will not be kind if you break even the slightest rule. You’ll be flagged down and stopped every single time you enter the building for the first month from a few of the concierges who will hassle you about whether you live there. You need to pay extra to even have an oven otherwise you get a glorified second microwave. Utilities are not included and they’re based on your apartments square footage, not you’re usage. Windows in units are horrifically drafty and offer no insulation Advice to landlord: Property needs to be managed better, especially considering it’s owned by a massive leasing company. There’s SO much room for improvement and the leasing office, especially for renewals and fielding of calls, needs to be so much more attentive and/or capable. Pay the folks in the mail room and on the maintenance staff far more than you do, they’re the best of the staff I’ve met in my two years

Pros: Good location, spacious, good amenities Cons: Cabinets and furniture are made to look nice but when you look at things closer they are put together poorly. Advice to landlord: Be more responsive and make sure apartments are 100% when new tenants move in. I had to wait months just to get a curtain that had dead bugs smooshed all over it from the previous tenant replaced.

Pros: Good location, nice to be near the water Cons: Very loud, young renters who like to party on the roof. Ridiculously overpriced. Water street is unpleasant. Advice to landlord: Improve family atmosphere

Unit 14D Pros: Beautiful new building, great doormen, supers on site. Laundry in units, elevator, amazing rooftop with bbqs and Lounges. Shared a large studio with two others with flex walls but if you want real bedrooms it’s expensive. Building itself is amazing Cons: Sometimes long wait for elevators

Pros: Little to none. There is a gym in the building and a rooftop. Cons: Unsafe - there was a murder in the building. The management company is sketchy and dishonest. Advice to landlord: They don't care, not worth giving any

Pros: Apartments are nice and spacious. Amenities are decent and the gym is pretty good. Cons: Elevators seem to always be down or have problems so there is often a long wait during peak times and lines almost out the door.

*Stayed here over 4 mos. for corporate housing. Worst experience of my life!; *Building is unsafe for females; *During this time, an escort died in a unit they had rented out to known gangsters via AirBNB themselves (it was all over the news); *The NYPD told me they had to come to the building 1-2x PER DAY unlike other buildings in the area; *THE WALLS ARE MORE THAN PAPER-THIN. The building doesn't seem to be in compliance with the noise code on walls; *The maintenance people yell at you rudely if you ask for anything or mess up service request tickets you submit such that they'll just walk into your apartment as they please during the wrong time; *The management are dreadfully unprofessional. They don't abide by basic NYC landlord-tenant laws and norms & retaliate against you if you ask them to do so; *The package valet delays telling you that you've received a package for an entire day; *The doormen are just ornamental and provide zero security; and, *They rent out to problematic tenants often and do nothing.

You’ll get a call about your bike being in the hall for 30 seconds, but if you mention the person smoking above you and getting ashes all in your window every day then it’s radio silence. This place has its ups an downs. The front desk has some nice people, the maintenance has some nice people (albeit everything keeps breaking, and the location is nice. However, rent prices keep getting raised, elevators take forever, your neighbors are loud and there’s no control over the drugs and smoking in the building. I’m sure you could find nicer places to stay in Manhattan for similar rates.
