A luxury it is not! - The only thing luxurious about The Opal is the price! (Granted it is new.) Management is forgetful, incompetent, and has the attitude you should be grateful to live there. Maintenance is slow and lazy. The building materials and appliances are the typical, sub-standard stuff used during the later part of the recent building boom. The drywall/sheetrock can not hold wall hangings - I ...Full review of Opal

You get what you pay for - not half bad - I have lived here for 2 1/2 years and it's a small apartment, you can hear all your tenants, the heater is old, there have been a couple of mice, the dryer didn't work on a few occasions and I had to run it twice, the treadmill in the gym gets really noisy and didn't work a couple times, they lost one of my work orders and it took 3 days to change my light ...Full review of 63rd West

Not so bad - I live at Manhattan Park from 4/2008 to 4/2009. The place isn't that bad. The staff is nice and responsive. People from the management office are your typical NY'ers, kinda rude but get the job done. I never had a problem with them. They just renovated the gyms. The grounds are very well kept. The walls aren't rock solid and you can occasionally hear your neighbors. When I ...Full review of Manhattan Park

I'm happy with my experience so far - I've been renting a studio at 11 Waverly Pl for a over a year now. The location is amazing, which explains the price. The building has laundry and 24/7 doorman service. All the doorman are amazing, they've gone out of my way to hold packages for my friends to pickup and put perishables away in my fridge (with my permission.) I've had really good experiences with the ...Full review of 11 Waverly

5 year Tenant Since Building Was Built - DO NOT MOVE HERE - I lived at the Aspen for the first 5 years the building was built. Apparently (or rumour has it) the owners ran out of money and then quickly tried to fill it up. Needless to say, the apartments (while nice and roomy) had some "problems" in the beginning. On my third night, the shower head in the bathroom came off and almost fell on my head during my shower! Maintenance is ...Full review of The Aspen

Wonderful building! - PARKING - I do not own a car but the few times I have rented a car I have been able to find parking no problem. Also, there is a private garage under/behind our building so that is always available if street parking is scarce. NOISE - As far as internal noise, not an issue. We never hear our neighbors. I know construction noise is a huge concern being right next to ground zero, but ...Full review of 90 West Street

This place has turned into a good value - I'm moving out of the NYU dorm formerly known as Stuy Town, and I've just visited Waterside. I can't believe how nicely they have upgraded this place. I looked here about 10 years ago and wasn't that impressed, but I gather they have gone overboard to attract market tenants, investing in landscaping, lobbies, and interiors/kitchens. A few years ago I believe ...Full review of Waterside Plaza

Terrible managment company, - The grounds are the only benefit of living in Peter Cooper Village. We were often harassed by neighbors who didn't like the sound of footsteps over them. It took management 4 full months and threat of legal action and getting NYC police involved to talk to the neighbors and ask them to leave us be. We paid our rent on the same day of every month automatically through our bank. They often ...Full review of Peter Cooper Village Apartments

Overview - I am a female in my mid-20's and I've been living in this apartment for 4 years now with another female roommate. The building itself isn't anything special, but what it lacks in physical appearance, it makes up for with space. I like that I have a lot of room for my junk, and both my roommate and I have amassed a lot of stuff over the years. I like the high ceilings (over ...Full review of 33 Gold Street Apartments

Disregard for Human Life, Sanctity of Marriage, and Education - Hi, I lived at the Rivergate (34th Street & 1st Ave) and actually lived through the worst nightmare. The helicopter's noise and deadly fumes were unbearable. My husband and I were treated like animals; I resorted to studying on the bathroom's floor for 8 months, trying to do my best as a first year dental student at New York University College of Dentistry. I placed a ...Full review of Rivergate Apartments
