4540 Center Blvd,

Queens, NY 11109

modern apartments, waterfront

yearly rent increases, some rude staff

stop increasing the rent every year and don't charge an amenities fee

Such a great location and the staff are all amazing. Apartments are very well maintained. Our hallway was very quiet. Using the facilities across the street at 4545 was our favorite part!

The heating/cooling system in our apartment would go on the fritz any time we switched from one mode to another (so from AC to heating or vice versa). Our unit was repaired once and then replaced, and it still happened. We were told this was a defect in the batch of units they ordered. Ultimately it didn't cause us too much trouble but we did have to ask maintenance to help us at the beginning of the seasons where we would make that transition.

Small-ish, fast elevator, friendly and professional doorman, very organized, quick maintenance, beautiful views, dog friendly

No in-building gym or amenities, a little far from the subway (but not bad)

Use real paint on the walls. They get smudged so easily.

Clean, new, wonderful doormen and staff, location is beautiful, very responsive management.

Far from the subway, cold and windy in the winter due to being close to the water, no inexpensive grocery stores close by.

Clean, nice views

Crowded downstairs due to the restaurant, very far from subway and shuttle is unreliable

- The building staff were all great, and a pleasure to deal with or see in the building.
- Building Link App made managing maintenance, visitor requests, etc, extremely easy and hassle free
- Shuttle to Vernon-Jackson subway when I was commuting to manhattan
- Location, location, location! Can't beat LIC waterfront living right at the Pepsi sign + Ferry stop!
- The LIE i+ Midtown tunnel are right nearby, with the 59th street bridge and RFK not far north
- Hotel bellhop style carts to help get your heavy and massive bags and packages up to your apartment

I don't have many cons about living here, I enjoyed my time spent living here.

- I would say that not having the amenities in the building was the biggest "con" -- the gym, lounge/work/party hosting area, roof deck, volleyball / tennis courts were all across the street at 4545 center
- Parking: if you have a vehicle, street parking is a nightmare, especially since on-street dining became a thing during the pandemic
- Blend on the Water is right at the base of the property, so Thursday - Sunday evenings can get crowded and a bit loud during the evenings, mostly during Summertime

Keep up the good work, and also try not to increase pricing too much over the coming years so that I can consider a move back.

neighborhood, apartment, staff

barely any central heating and cooling

The doormen and maintenance staff are beyond amazing. In terms of noise levels, I hear nothing! No more upstairs walking keeping me up at night. Very clean, and I feel extremely safe. Great location as well.

There have been a few things here and there I would ask be improved upon. An example, a mega-load dryer that never works and after multiple requests from lots of residents, still nothing. But I understand in the scheme of things this is minor and doesn’t reflect the building staff but the corporate management company.

Amazing door-staff and clean building

Cabinets are poor quality

Have searched for other places but can't find anything as good as our place

A/C keeps breaking (happened 4x in the 3 years) but they come right away to replace/fix it

Clean, quiet, and well maintained

A bit far from the 7 train

Door staff very good

Not many amenities

No advice for owner.

Overall cleanliness & atmosphere
Maintenance team always available on site
Safety protocol

Amenities

Restaurant below loud on weekends
Constant moving in and out

Amazing responsive staff. I have zero complaints and I’m grateful every day for living here!

Nothing I can think of.

Keep doing what you’re doing!

Great management, well maintained building. Easy ferry access.

Neighborhood could still use additional retail development.

Keep up the good work.
