PARK SOUTH TOWER ASSOCIATES LLC · avg 3.8 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Pros: Overall, the building delivers great service for the price of the apartments. I wouldn't put this in absolute "luxury" category, but given pricing in NYC the monthly rent doesn't fit that either. Pros are: no bugs, no rodents, can't hear your neighbors, great views, remodeled apartments, clean hallways and lobby, and generally attentive staff. Cons: Pros definitely outweigh cons, but the street is not my favorite and neighboring buildings do not maintain trash or sidewalks. Also, the elevators have gone down which is troublesome for a building of this size. Advice to landlord: Invest in an elevator overhaul and figure out a way to integrate lincoln center street cleaning on 60th st. Keep up the good work with apartment maintenance and tenant communication.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Staff is kind and competent. Cons: Multiple cockroaches sighting in the living room. Management not helping.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Unit NA Pros: The staff is wonderful. Phil, Alan, Ysef, etc. I always have them great holiday tips because they deserved it! Convenient location. Cons: Kind of a dead zone in the neighborhood but near central park, whole food Advice to landlord: no advice thanks”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Clean and well maintained apartments Cons: A lot of renovations are happening, so it gets noisy often. The leasing office (Brodsky) is manipulative. Advice to landlord: For the leasing office, please be more responsive and considerate to tenants, especially those who had reside in the building for years, some 10+ and 20+ years.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Good location, responsive maintenance, decent amenities and gym for an apartment Cons: Lease renewal prices are aggressive and not at all competitive with the area. Not sure who these guys think they are. It Could be fine for you if you get a good initial price and don’t plan on staying more than a year. Noisy construction and renovations frequently, and water gets shut off every week or two, so not great if you work primarily from home. Advice to landlord: Be reasonable to good tenants when doing rent increases. We can find the same quality building and location for less”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Unit One bedroom Pros: Professional staff, haven’t seen a roach in 10:years, good neighbors who are respectful and keep to themselves. Cons: Tenants are fungible to Brodsky Management. Leases are short (never more than 2 years) and when your apartment is due for renovation your only option is to move into a renovated place at significantly higher rent or move out. The tenant churn gives the building a dormitory feeling, with constant turnover. Advice to landlord: Fix the damn elevators and give some preference to long standing, good tenants.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Clean, good doormen, responsive building staff Cons: A lot of construction, building will mot hesitate to evict long term tenants so they can renovate their apartment, rent increases of above 20% Advice to landlord: Care more about tenants”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Great location; some apartments newly renovated. Cons: Constant construction noise 7 days per week from 7am to 9pm - impossible to work from home or sleep past 7am; management is incompetent and unresponsive; the water is untreated and runs black most days; roaches everywhere, which management does nothing about; the elevators are hazardous - I’ve gotten stuck once and at least one elevator is always out of order. Advice to landlord: Stop raising rents $500+ when you can’t even manage the building properly - that sort of practice will just lead to more turnover.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Clean, quick to respond Cons: Mold in some units, a few doormen can be a little bit short and rude at times but most are great.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Not an absolutely terrible place Cons: They will raise the rent on you like crazy, construction noises constantly, bad water pressure, mgmt slow to respond. Advice to landlord: Be ethical and humane.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Close to Central Park Very friendly staff Recently renovated units with nice finishes Cons: Once a week, they turn BOTH hot and cold water off for most of the day. They routinely close the garbage chute for a day for repairs They raised the rent $1200. I understand the market has changed from a year ago but to raise someone’s rent 41% is cold-blooded…but also very New York. Bye, Brodsky! Advice to landlord: Have a heart. Don’t lead with greed.”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Gym pool and staff good location Cons: raising rent by 50% is absolutely insane management doesnot value people living here Advice to landlord: Greed over people is not the best practice”
— 124 WEST 60 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: The building is clean and the apartments are renovated Cons: The landlord Increased the rent by $200 and didn’t want to negotiate, asked us to leave if we’re not happy with the rent! Advice to landlord: You can’t just increase the rent and expect people to be ok with it!”
