I am writing this review to give others a real update on this property.
Pros: This is a brand new building that is beautiful and has great views from almost all sides. Courteous staff and great appliances inside the apartment with a lot of amenities like a garage, shared work space, nice gym, dog area and Lennox hill which has a ton restaurants.
Cons: (A lot of them) - For this price the apartment is nice but not the street it is on. Since there are a lot of restaurants the trash is rampant ,i mean all over the place on 78th street between 1st and 2nd.
-
Rats are everywhere when you walk up 78th from 1st to 2nd due to the trash (bad smell too)
-
Amenities- They claim they will be done in June (they said this May), they wont be done until September or maybe even November they have a ton of work to do. (This includes all amenities other than the Gym which is done but nothing else looks even remotely close to being done)
-
No Keys - You have to use a fob to open the doors
-
Elevator - due to all the construction they only have one elevator for the entire building that you have to cal the front desk to use, very inconvenient.
-
It's a lottery building for rent control and tax savings so while you are paying full price price others got to get in using this lottery for rent control and PAYING 1/3 of what they are asking for in price now.
TLDR: Nice building but trash, rats and smell is pretty bad for the price you are paying and the lack of amenities and all the construction. I will be looking to move in a year when my lease comes up, if I would have known this I would not have rented here at this price point.
