I have lived in this building for over 3 years now and I find it hard to ever leave. A new doorman building with a gym and fabulous views with tons of sunlight, new appliances and bathrooms for the price is really unbeatable. I would definitely tell anyone to look into living here.

It sounds like you work for the building. Shady move to be posting apartment reviews for your own building, anyway.. It's not hell on earth but its far from great. one bedrooms should be priced around 2,700 dollars and not 3,200. if you are coming here to spend your money on a luxurious life - look elsewhere. The doormen are far from perfect. The staff overall is pretty unprofessional. the apartments themselves are on the small side. i lived there for 1 year and my apt seemed so much smaller then all my other friends beautiful luxury buildings. the whole place is looking tired compared to other luxury buildings. the elevators are a complete disaster. the super is a joke. as other people said the walls are cracking in the apartments..that can't be good. the granite kitchen counter is all chipped. but i do have to say 360 west 43rd street (same management as 420 w 42) is a lot nicer and I would choose that building over this one any day of the week..good luck, and don't let the leasing agent feed you ----...take a close look around before you sign a lease! oh and also remember to keep in mind if you are thinking of staying here more then a year be prepared to pay about 300-400 dollars rent increase at lease renewal time. what a joke
