Nice but $$$$
Former Tenant
Pros:
Recently renovated units, the kitchen and bathrooms are especially beautiful and nice.
Kitchen appliances (stove, fridge, microwave) are very modern and beautiful.
In-unit washer/dryer
Quiet
Friendly doormen
Rooftop is beautiful with great views
Easy access to the new East River Greenway
Cons:
Expensive, even when considering the amenities, I don't think it's worth the price for how little space you get
Construction seems questionable in some aspects. None of the doors inside the unit actually fully latch closed except the door to the bedroom which only closes if you hold the door handle at a very specific angle and force. Also, none of the doors have locks (not even the bathroom)
No central air, I know that's a rarity in Manhattan anyway but it hurts when you're paying this much
Amenities fees (gym and rooftop) are mandatory even if you don't use them
The elevator doors close VERY quickly to the point you basically need to speed walk as soon as they open, which can make it stressful to use--I can see this being a problem if you have any kind of mobility issue
