“Pros: The building itself is great. Apartments are very nice and area is wonderful Cons: The management company is horrible. Nick and dime you for everything. Make you feel bad if you have a question about an invoice. Very non-responsive to emergencies. Advice to landlord: Fire everyone that works in your management office and start over.”

“Pros: Price, location, doorman Cons: Smaller units, walk to subway long”

“Unit 5i Pros: Always being cleaned Great waste management Polite staff The apartment is really nice with good appliances The heat is gas powered & AC is electric — good for the bill and hard to find in NYC Great neighborhood with lots to do Different kinds of recycling in the basement Cons: The concierge is 10-6, not 24 hours. Most people are also at work during those hours so it can be difficult to retrieve packages. There are some bizarre rules posted in the elevator The elevator that they use the trash for is starting to stink, please change the cloth hanging in there Advice to landlord: Better package management system, even if we all love our concierge & change the elevator cloth!”

“Pros: This building has great management who are very responsive and keep the building and common areas consistently clean. Super comes within a day to inspect or fix any issues. There is concierge to collect and organize packages. Great amenities like a gym and rooftop. Cons: Laundry room and bike room in the basement are not kept very clean. There is also a bug infestation that comes up every spring, so I refused to go down there after my first year living there. Heater also goes out consistent and there are drainage issues in the kitchen sink and bathtub.”

“Pros: Standard new build with issues Cons: Super and management company were very strange. Upper floors have water leak issues, used to find piles of ice in the stairwells during bad weather”

“Pros: Well maintained, rent stabilized, generally responsive management although sometimes you have to bump a request. Cons: For one month in the summer, the basement is infested with bugs and it's a pain to do laundry. Management is aware and puts out traps but it doesn't help a ton. Advice to landlord: NA”

“Pros: Responsive management, proactive pest control measures, easy street parking, modern finishes, decent gym Cons: Not a lot to do in the area, draconian rooftop rules (no dancing, guests, or alcohol allowed?)”

“Unit 8e Pros: Decent building quality Cons: Poor management, roach infestation. AVOID”

“Unit 1L Pros: - great staff / the porter, super and part time door folks are always super responsive and helpful - good windows for heat/cold retention and muffling outside noise - awesome location, close to grocery stores and great neighborhood Cons: The management can be a bit argumentative unhelpful sometimes. There have been issues with roaches in the cellar (which is where the laundry machines are) and they have had extremely strange responses to email complaints from residents such as saying “they’re not roaches!!” Like… my dude, yes they are and please get the hundreds of dead bodies swept up?? It’s disgusting. It doesn’t happen often but it’s happened at least twice in the two years I’ve lived here Advice to landlord: Have better table side manner in email responses - we pay a ton of money to live here.”

“Pros: Apartment units are all pros Parking available Location is great Cons: Expensive rent price Gym equipment not always working Doorman unavailable during work hours”

“Pros: Doorwoman is great and maintenance staff are all very friendly. Building is cleaned frequently with the exception of exterior windows. Cons: Roof access rules are archaic. I've never seen anything like it in this city. Advice to landlord: Expand roof access and offer exterior window cleaning every few years”

“Unit 8M Pros: Clean building, routine monthly extermination, responsive to maintenance tickets, helpful front desk staff. No major problems experienced in my two years living there and a great location. Cons: Laundry room machines occasionally out of order/leaking Security deposit got several hundred dollars withheld upon moving out for things like scuffed key fobs, minor floor scratches, counter chips, toilet brushes, etc - make sure you document thoroughly when you move in and submit maintenance requests for anything that might be charged against you later.”

“Unit 4C Pros: Modern, clean, responsive super and management Cons: The doorperson is only present half the day and the package logging system often has errors”

“Pros: Location, proximity to supermarket, rooftop Cons: Poorly maintained amenities like the gym, not enough hours with a front desk/doorman Advice to landlord: Increase presence of doorman”

“Pros: Views, amenities (not well kept) Cons: Location, size and history”

“Pros: Clean, generally well maintained. Exterminator comes often. No real maintenance issues. Cons: When you do need maintenance they can be a bit slow/unresponsive but it’s not too terrible! Advice to landlord: Be more responsive to tenants! There needs to be an option for emergencies like flooding.”

“Pros: Building management is responsive and addresses problems usually in a timely manner. I regularly would see the super and cleaning people maintaining the building. Located in a great neighborhood, near lots of great restaurants and bars, and close to prospect park — and with all that, rent isn’t too bad for the area. Also parking is probably the best deal you can find compared to other buildings that offer parking. Cons: Building could be maintained better. Hallways walls and floors can get dirty and not cleaned or painted over. The no dogs policy was a personal con for us. They raised rent during the pandemic, and even amenities weren’t even accessible so what were we paying for? Advice to landlord: Let people have pets on a case by case basis! I would have stayed here if that was the case.”

“Pros: Roof deck is a great escape and decent view. Cons: Management constantly cuts corners, the materials used to build apartments are garbage and fall apart, they will keep your security deposit, if you live on the side by the shuttle expect filth all over your porch and sucked into your heat/ac units, when you go to management with problems they are accusatory and unresponsive, they treat the front desk staff like crap. Advice to landlord: I don’t even know where to start...”

“Pros: Updated, newish building with friendly staff and super in the building Cons: - gym is outdated and half the time equipment doesn’t work - packages constantly missing or stolen, companies stopped refunding me due to constant missing packages. In a one week period, I lost 6 packages with no explanation except “you’re not the only one”. - building started out as clean a few years back but now roaches in building and in apartments (don’t be fooled by the clean look) - unsafe, someone constantly breaks into the building with crowbar ( for theft I guess) cops have not done anything even though there’s video proof. I began to feel unsafe walking around the building at night time (laundry, gym) - beware of move out reviews and make sure you are present at inspection. They go through the apartment with a fine tooth comb to find reasons to hold your deposit. Charging hundreds of dollars for floor scratches (considered normal wear and tear) on floors that are plastic and not even real wood. Take pictures when you move in as they also charge for damage prior to your move in and claim you caused it without proof that it was you. - trash pick up is not consistent so building hallways tend to smell from overflow trash refuse rooms - thin walls, you can hear neighbors music (even when not loud, it sounds like it’s in your apartment), neighbors arguing and people walking around talking. Advice to landlord: - Hire better property managers and stop taking advantage of long term valued tenants that you end up losing them. - Clean, clean, clean, clean!!!! - doorman from 9am to 11pm!”

“Pros: Gym, roof deck Cons: Overpriced, apartments look nice at first but quality and construction is actually very cheaply maintained. During covid we had thousands of dollars worth of packages stolen (thieves breaking into package room with crowbars on camera, multiple times) and management did absolutely nothing until a police report was filed. They will find absolutely anything to excuse withholding your entire security deposit. Advice to landlord: If you’re going to charge ‘luxury building’ prices, you need to protect your residents.”

“Pros: Clean and new, big windows, responsive company Cons: Expensive for less space, the company wasn’t great to the doormen who worked for them (who were lovely) Advice to landlord: Treat the doormen who work for you better!”
