Ok, granted I just moved in like 2 days ago (EDIT: 2 MONTHS NOW), but I'm extremely happy with my experience so far. I was a little scared coming in, after reading some of the reviews, but everything's been smooth. Move-in was easy. They gave us full control of the freight elevator, so we could stop it on a floor while we loaded/unloaded.
Everyone in the staff has been friendly and on top of things, including Sophia. She even took a few minutes off-the-clock to let us check on something in the apartment a few days before we moved in. If you're a reasonably nice person, I'd not worry about the negative reviews about the management.
Maybe my apt is just in a good spot, but my hall is very quiet, just the occasional door closing, but not at all disturbing, especially since the bedrooms are located away from the hall. People don't make much noise in the hall. I also have yet to hear neighbors through the wall (but 2 days isn't totally conclusive on that).
The apt covers all the bases. Great, solidly closing windows, good air system, nice kitchen. The shower is hot instantly, and the water temp does not seem to fluctuate at all while you're showering. Is the unit top-of-the-line luxury' Not quite, but it's close in my opinion. It is light years ahead of most comparably priced pre-war apartments that my roomate and I looked at, and I'm not even including the bldg features.
The feature set is great. The roofdeck is very nice (and finished, contrary to a prior review). The gym has lots of machines and cable tv. The children's playroom is colorful and inviting (I think it may not have been done when the bldg opened). Lots of laundry machines. Theater is very spiffy. Trash compactor chute and secure bike-room are convenient.
My take on this place is that it got off to a rough start and it took awhile for all the finish work to really be completed, but it finally has its act together. I'll update if I come across anything unpleasant, but I'm not anticipating it.
