    Nice place all in all
    Former Tenant

    The building is clean and the ceilings are high which makes it feel very spacious.

    All good, well maintained Columbia building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Clean, safe, well managed
    Cons:
    It’s NYC - occasional mice and roaches

    Wonderfully maintained student housing
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This is a clean and quiet building in a great location with really wonderful, dedicated, and kind staff. Although the building is dated in some ways, there is a charm to the architecture (arched doorways and beautiful alcove windows), and an internal courtyard provides air and light. Many apartments have unobstructed views of Riverside Park
    Cons:
    The hallways could be renovated, but that's about it. Who spends time in the hallway anyways?
    Advice to owner:
    Keep up the good work!

    Wish we didn't have to leave!
    Former Tenant

    Cons:
    sometimes packages get stolen if you aren't on top of your deliveries
    Advice to owner:
    overall great place to live

    Former Tenant

    Cons:

    Advice to owner:
    Keep it up!

    Good place to live
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Columbia as the landlord for our unit was a breeze.
    Cons:
    Our upstairs neighbour didn't have a carpet, so sometimes we would get noise from them. Landlord never asked them to get one.
    Advice to owner:
    Ask everyone to get a carpet

    Among the best for student housing
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The super is nice. The location is amazing for dog owners because Riverside Park and Sakura Park are right there.
    Cons:
    Our unit, 3L, had very little counter space for the kitchen. One of the annoying things about this building is that there are multiple entrances on different streets and delivery people get easily confused by that. Also, none of the units have stainless steel appliances or dishwashers.
