“Pros: Neighborhood was nice Cons: Lied about amenities. No live in super. Poor trash management. Hot water / heat was hit or miss. Inconsiderate neighbors. Thin walls. Poor soundproofing between units”
— 208 WEST 10 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Great location and nice/redeveloped units Cons: Old building so potential for pests, mgmt is nice but uninvolved (although responsive)”
— 208 WEST 10 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: The building is newly renovated and pretty clean. I saw zero rats and maybe 2-3 cockroaches the 2 years I lived here. It also tends to be pretty quiet despite being in a prime location in the middle of WV. Cons: Super and wife are very grumpy. Can be unresponsive. No way to predict rent increases and tough to negotiate because they’re in demand”
— 208 WEST 10 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: You cannot beat this location in NYC. It’s in the heart of the WV. Fellow tenants in the building are generally quite nice and there are a number of people who have lived here for years. Cons: I’m writing this review to warn of an issue in the building. While it is improving, I know that as a potential tenant I would have liked to have been warned about an issue in the building before leasing. One of the units on the 6th floor has an ongoing cleanliness issue that is attributing to a roach infestation issue. Unfortunately this frequently results in roach issues for the apartments directly beneath it in the building (i.e. those that are the B apartments, so 5B, 4B, etc.). I’m not sure how the units on the 6th floor are impacted by this. To the building’s credit, every two weeks an extermination company comes to the building; however, as the majority of the issues appear to come from one tenant on the 6th floor, it’s pretty crucial that the exterminator can come into that unit to spray and that’s not always the case. Another issue to beware of is that the radiator makes the apartments extremely hot in the winter, even when the radiator valve is shut off. I imagine this is an issue for many pre-war buildings but it’s something to be aware of.”

— 208 WEST 10 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Location/safety, video intercom system, minimal rent increases, new hallways, accessible (bare bones) rooftop, Sushi on Jones in retail Cons: No laundry, management company is terrible & do less than the bare minimum, live in super is not motivated to do his job re: basic repairs, noisy construction by Surreal Skincare business which is very annoying for everyone on the interior side of the building (has been going on for 1-2 years)”
