Broker & Resident Comments

Add Your Own Comment

This "welcoming" Midtown East residence earns "consistent praise" for its "incredibly spacious" apartments and "unparalleled" location near Grand Central. Residents rave about the "attentive" doormen and "responsive" management team who make this "well-maintained" building feel like "a true home." The "recently renovated" units offer "ample closet space" and "updated appliances," while new amenities including a "brand new gym" and "outdoor terrace" add modern appeal. "Safe," "clean," and "quiet," with a "warm community vibe," though some note "aggressive rent increases" at renewal time. The "prime location" offers easy access to "multiple subway lines" and is "surrounded by restaurants," making it an "ideal spot" for city living.
