Prepare for a hot summer
Pros
The doormen are amazing - probably only plus
Cons
Beware: there is no air conditioning in this building and window units are not allowed. Extremely expensive rent - roof deck was closed for years before finally opening and now only open 9am-9pm. Air conditioning doesn’t work with no end in sight at it being fixed
Advice to the owners
Fix the air conditioning
Good place to live but needs improvements
Pros
The location cannot be beaten. The doormen and most of the staff are very nice. The apartments are spacious and have great storage space. The gym is small but good to have it. It’s safe and neighbors are usually nice.
Cons
The lobby is beautiful but the common areas are run down, especially the carpeting needs to be changed or at least thoroughly washed and the gym machines are getting old. It’s a big building so maintenance is not always responsive and needs to be chased down.
Advice to the owners
Change the carpet in the common areas and keep it clean
