Worst building I've ever lived in... - where do I begin - I came to the building in early 2008 and cannot wait to get out. You would think that paying 4K-plus for an apartment might get you a properly managed building. Far from the case. For example, there are weekly hot water outages, and not the type that are scheduled (though those are frequent as well). There is no one to call; multiple calls to the building manager have ...Full review of The Camargue

Poor management and high rate... not worth it. - In spite of the pricy rent, only thing I like about this apartment is the convenience. I cannot find anything else to be proud of as a resident. The management is very resident-unfriendly. Even when you know that the service men are there, you have to request the service THROUGH COMPUTER!! and you will never get any response in a few days. Another terrible thing is that there are ...Full review of Archstone Midtown West

Be Very Careful!!! - In addtion to being over priced and situated in a terrible area, the leasing office and management are rude, unhelpful, and scam artists. Post Luminaria is a rent controlled building, and their current status under the 421A Act allows them to increase rent on the first anniversary of an apartment. What this means is that it can increase mid-lease. When we submitted our application ...Full review of Post Luminaria

Like a resort away from the city - Well I am so sad I have to leave because of finances and go back to dumpy living. It is literally like living in a resort away from NY and has been so nice to come home to daily. I have been so spoiled for 3 years that I have lived here. I am amazed that everytime I turn around there is a new amazing amenity...an Atm! a store! New decorations with fresh flowers! Is management bored? I ...Full review of The Octagon

BEST STAFF - I have been living here for about 7 years now and I can honestly call this place home. The staff is welcoming and warm. The building is well maintained, the location is great and only getting better over the years. The super is friendly and responsive. A great gym and awesome deck ( a little too noisey.. but i guess that is expected for the location). It is a pet friendly building, ...Full review of 420 West 42nd Street

Madison Belvedere Review - We signed a lease for this apartment, but actually never moved in. Even though we signed the lease and paid two months rent, the leasing office was not able to process our application in time and told us on the morning of the move that some items were missing (they did not verify our previous address, for which they could have called a 1-800 number). Given that their online vendor ...Full review of Madison Belvedere

LOVE IT HERE - I have lived here for 2 years, and think it is a wonderful building, great staff, superior management. My family, including a young child, feel very safe and happy here. I have read the negative reviews and want to say that this is a very busy neighborhood so if you don't like busy, don't live in Manhattan. That is no reflection on the building.

Great staff/management, facility & location - I've been living at the New Gotham Apartments since August 2003 and I haven't wanted to move anywhere else. The location can't be any better. Near the Hudson River path and dog park in one direction and Times Square in the other. The restaurants and bars on 9th Ave are some of the best on the entire island of Manhattan.
