Resident 2018

So I wasnt going to write a review but after reading some comments, I feel like I need to. First and foremost, the community is great. While it can definitely be improved, it is great for what you get for New York. The amenities are great and the finishes are nice. Some of you need to research the original owners reason for constructing the building the way it is. It was designed with the "working professional" in mind hence the working stations downstairs and conference room and lounge area. Management does change frequently but I feel like thats just the nature of renting. This isnt an HOA. At the end of the day its a business. A building owned by someone who will likely sell or make changes to make more money. So management changes are inevitable. The noise complaints are REALLY getting old. In your lease, it clearly states that noise levels should be reduced after a certain time. Meaning before that time, you may hear some noise! If some of you are so sensitive to a vaccum or crying baby, then you need to live in a HOUSE. This is an apartment community with multiple residents. Everyone should be considerate but to be upset that you hear people talking or a vaccum or a baby crying is absolutely insane. Live in a single family house if you are that sensitive. Same goes for the dogs. The community prides itself for being pet friendly. There is a dog park for goodness sake! The beauty in it is there is a totally different building thats no pets allowed. You have options. However if you AGREE to live in a pet friendly building, understand you are going to see and hear pets. Dont be so nasty when your neighbor gets in the elevator with you with their dog. No one put a gun to your head and told you to live in a pet friendly building. Deal with it. As I mentioned the community is not perfect which is why I gave 4 stars. But look around, I would say you are getting a good deal for the area. Its expensive but you are getting convenience and amenities that arent necessarily everywhere in New York. This is APARTMENT LIVING! if you cannot deal with hearing your neighors for time to time, a little dog possibly kissing your feet, a baby crying or a few things needing work. do us ALL a favor and go buy a home or rent a single family home. Thanks to the management team for all you do. Its not easy and I am sure you are trying. Keep discovering ways to make it great. It will get there.
