    Great UES Home
    Former Tenant

    Laundry room can get EXTREMELY busy during peak hours
    Over 1 year ago
    love this building!
    Former Tenant

    in a safe area, friendly tenants, modern looking units, spacious for the price

    laundry room is too small for the building
    Advice to owner:
    add laundry machines

    Great building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Clean, quick and responsive live in super, well kept, quiet neighbors, nicely renovated apartments.
    Cons:
    No cons with building itself. I face the front and it’s loud outside because of the post office.

    Beautiful building, management takes care of issues
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building is well maintained, super usually takes care of any issues (not super short notice but good enough). Nice neighbors
    Cons:
    Building is in front of post office which can become noisy as trucks move in and out. USPS trucks take up a lot of parking and people sometimes "park" on the street next to it creating a lot of honking.
    Advice to owner:
    No specific advice, loved my time there.

    Incredible Gem UES
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Amazing super!!!!
    Renovated hallways
    Amazing prewar details
    Great pest/garbage control
    Safe package room
    Cons:
    Younger crowd has started to move in with louder weekend noise and less cleanliness in shared spaces

    Heat is old and challenging to control
    Advice to owner:
    Respect current tenants who stayed with you during the pandemic and don’t increase rents so much we have to leave!

    Great lenox hill apartment
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious apartments
    Laundry and elevator building
    Solid walls (couldn’t hear any foot steps or neighbors)
    Location is great
    Cons:
    Found two cockroaches near the front door
    Small kitchen
    Over 3 years ago
    Perfect building, perfect location
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Equidistant from the East River and Central Park. Great Super, laundry room, beautiful new lobby and hallways.
    Cons:
    No rooftop area
    Advice to owner:
    I liked the originally lobby, it had character.
    New one is nice but not necessary
    Over 3 years ago
    Cute building in a great spot!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building is well maintained with a live in super. Recently updated interior (2019). Modern finishes. Great location steps from the Q on 70th st. Great water pressure.
    Cons:
    Watch out for mice in the basement. You have a small mailbox in the entry way but Packages are left in the hallway (I’ve never had an issue but a bit worrisome when ordering something expensive). Elevator can be slow. Can be a bit noisy across from the post office loading trucks if you are on the street side
    Advice to owner:
    Could use a better package system

    Love living Here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very close to Central Park.
    Cons:
    Mostly older people and families in the neighborhood.
    Advice to owner:
    None!

    Good but not great
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Newly renovated most units. Neighbors courteous. In house super is helpful and timely. Near central park and many restaurants.
    Cons:
    Like all these older buildings, things break or leak or need repair. Street is fairly loud with lots of traffic. With the post office across the street there is lots of honking as nearly the entire street is reserved for post office parking and peooke are often violating it. Parking if pretry difficult here. No ac or ceiling fans.
