    Amazing views depending on the unit
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    -Views from 2241 are lovely
    -Fairly modern/clean/bright designed apartments
    -A/C unit is digital and does both heat and cooling (no forced heat or radiators which I hate)
    -Bathroom size and light up mirror
    -Helpful and friendly doormen and maintenance team
    -Laundry on every floor
    -rooftop views
    -I have had no pest issues in unit 2241
    -can barely hear neighbors even when they throw parties
    -dog friendly building
    -package room is great
    -location super close to waterfront walking path
    -close to 4/5, 1, and R/W trains
    Cons:
    -main con is not really the buildings fault but there is construction right across the street in battery park that is going to be a multi year project it seems. Some of the work gets done from 10pm-4am including jackhammering and very loud sawing/welding sounds. Not for light sleepers lol
    -hallway carpet is disgusting but not a huge issue
    -rooftop is only open a few months a year and has super strict rules
    -service elevator lets out into an underground parking garage versus street level which can make moving in/out more difficult.
    -management is extremely slow to respond to emails
