★★★★★Feb 2026

“Unit 309 Pros: The price is pretty decent for the neighborhood. I have a washer/dryer and dishwasher in my unit and like the layout of it. The on site staff are very nice. My windows are south facing and I get a lot of natural light. I can't really hear my neighbors much. Cons: The electric heat has become so costly. The gym is not well maintained, broken machines and it always smells a bit weird.”

“Unit 208 Pros: Location was excellent. Close to subway, on top of grocery store. Cons: Heat frequently stopped working, management provided space heaters. We had a big water leak in our apartment because windows were not properly sealed so rain/ snow got in. Main CON was I had a huge black mold issue in my apartment that went untreated for months while I became very ill.”

“Unit 316 Pros: Rooftop view, washer dryer in unit, doorman, package room. Cons: Management is unresponsive and disrespectful. In the 10 months that I’ve lived here, I’ve had an ongoing leak in my bathroom ceiling for 8 months. The gym has been closed for 5 months due to mold. My rent has not been reduced due to any of these issues. Multiple tenants have complained about leaks, mold, broken heaters amongst other things. In my six years of living in New York City, I’ve never experienced this before. Advice to landlord: Have some human decency”

“Unit 208 Pros: Overall nice building, astounding rooftop views of Manhattan. Cons: Owner/management are slow to deal with serious apartment issues, including flooding, mold, etc. For years they were entirely unresponsive. More recently things have become only slightly better.”

★★★★★Jul 2023

“Pros: The people who work on-site in this building (porter, front desk, super) are wonderful. Very kind, helpful, and responsive. The location of the building is so convenient to grocery stores, the subway, and lots of great bars and restaurants, and even though it sits on a corner of two relatively busy streets, it's pretty quiet. Barely any hallway noise. Cons: Building maintenance is an issue. The grills on the rooftop haven't worked in 2 years, quite a bit of the furniture up there is broken or missing. The treadmills in the gym have been out of order for over 6 months. Additionally, there are some shady characters that hang around the building, typically in the parking garage next door, but sometimes on the roof or in the basement lounge. There are also frequently large parties on the roof. Advice to landlord: There should be tighter control on building visitors and better maintenance.”

★★★★★Jun 2022

“Pros: Management no keeps the main common areas clean and well maintained but rooftop can be cleaner in terms of washing the cushions (they seem like they’ve been left out in the rain). The views from the rooftop are probably one of the best amenities otherwise. Overall a good place to live in, neighbors are quiet during the week with the occasional loud parties on the weekends. Trash management is timely and well kept and the super is super friendly and awesome at letting you know that your packages arrived. Cons: No major cons sticking out yet”

★★★★★Feb 2022

“Pros: elevator building with stunning city views from the rooftop Cons: overpriced. Building was made on a budget and owner cut corners. The building was only open for 2 years before we moved in and hot water heater switchbox set on fire (we were told by those who fixed it that it was the wrong one but the cheapest one which is why our landlord purchased it). Hazard! Then we had a roach issue, and MASSIVE leaks in the building. Flooding everything, including a room in our unit. Floors swelled with the water. This was from rain, which shows the building was not properly sealed/built. Advice to landlord: Fix these problems.”
