Resident 2015 - 2017

4/7/2017

First year was great. Second year, not so much. Apartments are huge! Average 1 bedroom is over 1,000 sq ft! Rent however is expensive and parking is NOT included and goes up each year along with the rent. Maintenance is horrible, not professional and always leave a mess behind. The building is one of the most expensive in the area but the conditions are terrible (see attached photos) there is a parking garage and a parking lot that is half covered by the building and half uncovered. These spots are cheaper ($75-$125) the underground is ($150-$250). residents for the most part are older so the building is quiet but there is a good mix of young professionals and families here as well. Close proximity to major highways and NYC transportation if that's important to you. The elevators are constantly out of order. There are three but usually only two are working. Elevators are dirty, parking lot is dirty, lobby is always dirty and musty like a basement. They only clean before open houses on Saturdays. Lights in the hallways are cracked & elevator lights are always going out. Best thing about this building is that heat and air conditioning is included! Never expect your PSEG bill to go above $60 in the summer and $30 in the winter (at least for a one bedroom) there is a 24hr concierge (3 shifts) but they really don't do much other than log packages. Sometimes you aren't notified when you have a food delivery or a guest and most definitely are not helped when you walk in with your hands full. Other buildings in the area have concierge that greet you hello and assist you with bags if needed. Gym is very small (only a handful of machines) & the community room is rarely used. Overall I would recommend this property only because the location is great, electric bill is low & apartments are spacious. The building and staff however, could use some help.
