— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: GREAT location for subway access. Definitely also enough room for one person in a one bedroom. Great staff and great amenities. Cons: Had a cockroach problem in my bathroom. Also had all the issues you would expect looking out onto 14th street: noisy, bright lights, and opening a window meant letting in lots of dust and lots of noise.”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Clean common areas nice neighbors convient location nice gym Cons: The management is rude, mean, unwilling to accommodate, and is beyond cheap which means subpar parts that need frequent repair Advice to landlord: Professionalism, long term tenant appreciation, and social skills all need work”

— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Location, it's right above the busiest subway station of Manhattan, walking distance to almost everywhere Cons: It's an old building, water pressure is so bad, had a lot of times draining problems”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: The porters and doorman are generally very helpful and friendly. Updated hallways + lobby Cons: Units are not well maintained, heat, loud, super is not attentive”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: This building is super clean and nicely done. The apartments are really clean and have great layouts/floor plans. The kitchen appliances and bathroom appliances are new and beautiful. Ample closet space. Package room is nice to have as well and the doormen are wonderful kind people :) Cons: The super and handyman are completely unresponsive. I had to put in the same work request three separate times and then talked to both of them in person about it multiple times. They always said they would take a look/take care of it but they NEVER did. I had to hire someone from outside the building. Terrible service. The gym is nice and good to have for sure, but there’s only one key for it. You have to go to the doorman and ask for the key every time you want to use the gym. The capacity is also only 5 people at a time which seems a little ridiculous (it’s not that small). Additionally the people i encountered in the building were just flat out rude. I’ve never seen anything like it in the 20+ years I’ve been living in NYC.”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Laundry, elevator, gym (small) Cons: Can't control heat, can get hot in apartment, can't get into gym 24/7 have to get key from doorman Advice to landlord: Rent is WAY TOO HIGH”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: close to union square trains no fees Cons: super is rude one doorman is rude massive garbage piles outside the building entrance homeless people on the block cant control the heat well windows are not insulated”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Nice amenities and some doormen are nice Cons: Other doormen are rude and management is a mixed bag - some nice and helpful people and others quite the opposite”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Clean and well maintained. Good size apartments with little noise except construction. Great doormen. Utilizes BuildingLink to track packages, deliveries, repairs, and visitors. Cons: Super deletes requests from BuildingLink by marking as complete when incomplete and does not conduct legally required inspections. Greater chance to get things done if pay super on the side. Mngt slow to respond unless in a $5K or up apt.”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Extremely convenient amenities and location Cons: A bit of construction noise periodically Advice to landlord: :)”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Super is very responsive, all but 1 doorman is respectful, polite and do their jobs. Only 1 doorman is lazy, at times disrespectful and doesn’t want to work. All others are great! Porters are hardworking and nice too. Building is well maintained. Location is great! Apartment sizes are decent. Cons: Many residents are first year college students and they’re experiencing there first time away from home so they act as if they’re living in a dorm. Loud parties with no consideration for other tenants. Aside from that, most people that have lived there for many years & are good decent people. Advice to landlord: Make sure your tenants who have been loyal and have lived there for many years are happy by ensuring that the transient short-term tenants behave and act like responsible citizens considerate adults.”
— 137 4 AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Best location, friendly doormen, helpful super Cons: Elevators could be faster Advice to landlord: Add a peloton bike to the building gym”
