Review for the Forge
Pros
Good location and responsive management
Cons
Slow elevators and not being able to enter from the second floor.
Advice to the owners
Enable the service elevator
Nice building but constant interior construction
Pros
Definitely the most cabinet and closet space out of all apartment buildings in LIC. Building staff were also polite and nice. Gym and pool (pool only open on specific days in the summer) were nice, though costed addition $75 pp/month.
Cons
In the time I lived in the building, there were multiple issues with a least one elevator, leaving just 1-2 elevators available for ~40 floors. Constant construction -- they forced us to open our home for accessibility construction that I think the building was mandated to perform despite the fact that no one living there needed these improvements. The lounge areas needed repairs and they had lots of paint work happening on the first floor for weeks. This was never my experience with other apartment buildings in LIC.
