Don't Move in to 1160 Fifth Avenue!!!
From: -Anonymous-Date posted: 4/28/2009
Years at this apartment: 2008 - 2009
We had a terrible experience with Goldfarb Properties, the manager of 1160 - we were the second tenant in a row to complain about the noise caused by an upstairs neighbor, took measurements that indicated that his piano practicing was twice as loud as the city code permitted and brought our complaints to Goldfarb to be addressed. Over the course of several months they repeatedly assured us that they were working with the noisy tenant and refused to give us a comparable unit for our same rent when they became available (and we were paying peak market rents). Eventually we discovered that they had been lying to us and that they had abandoned their efforts to address the noise situation. While they claimed that they had completed an investigation and determined that the sound was acceptable they offered no proof. While we would have loved to have paid for professional measurements and taken them to court for back rent under Constructive Eviction (a tenant has a right to "quiet enjoyment" which Goldfarb failed to provide) we ultimately settled with them and moved as quickly as we could. Throughout it all the management staff was, well, how does one describe the behavior of someone who tells a tenant to "get the F*** out of the building"' Following our terrible experience with them we asked friends who had lived there, they all had had horror stories about Goldfarb too.
