Review Summary for Udr Rivergate LLC
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenant reviews of buildings managed by UDR RIVERGATE LLC reveal a mix of positive and challenging experiences. The spacious apartments and appealing amenities, such as gyms and rooftops, attract a young demographic, fostering a lively community. However, persistent elevator malfunctions and long wait times are ongoing concerns, impacting daily convenience. Pest control effectiveness varies, with some tenants reporting issues. Management responsiveness receives mixed feedback—while some find staff helpful and quick to address maintenance, others cite unresponsiveness and rudeness. Noise levels can be high, often attributed to youthful residents and busy surroundings. Prospective renters should weigh the vibrant atmosphere against maintenance and management inconsistencies.

Decent apartment - some issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Well maintained
- good amenities (package room, rooftop is great, laundry had some issues with drying a year ago but never had an issue in the last 10 months, gym is okay not great at peak times)
- didn’t have any pests or utility issues in my year there (15th floor)
- Doormen/concierge are very nice & helpful
- never issues with neighbors. This could depend where your apt is. This building attracts a young crowd
- great view
Cons:
South tower elevators are awful with one being “modernized” have heard the newly modernized north elevators still have issues. Expect to wait a long time for them.

Management not very responsive. Then when they need a response from you, they need it immediately. This gets frustrating

Trains not that close but buses do run pretty frequently most of the day

Heavy ambulance and helicopter area - can get loud sometimes

They force you to pay for their internet which has terrible service sometimes
Advice to owner:
Need better responsiveness

Nice but busy
Former Tenant
Pros:
Clean, friendly staff, management and maintenance are very responsive, great size apartments and lots of storage for what you pay. Only one bug in two years
Cons:
Super busy, elevators always out of service and spotty service with the elevators, takes forever to get downstairs from high floors given number of elevators per occupant. Crowd tends to be younger so can have loud music but never to the point of overly disruptive in my experience
Advice to owner:
Fix the elevators

The building is ok besides the elevators and the management
Former Tenant
Pros:
The rooms are incredibly spacious, providing plenty of room to relax and unwind. The study areas are well-designed and perfect for getting work done in a quiet environment. One of the highlights is definitely the rooftop, which offers stunning views and a great place to hang out with friends.
Cons:
We had a serious issue with mice, which was both disgusting and unsettling. The management was unresponsive and unhelpful, making the situation even worse. The elevators were constantly breaking down, causing major inconveniences. To top it off, there was an Airbnb unit next to us, leading to frequent noise and disturbances. I would not recommend this building to anyone.

Classic Murray hill apt
Former Tenant
Pros:
Apartments are big and nicely renovated. Good amenities (for a mandatory fee)
Cons:
Elevators are always out of order and there are not enough to support the amount of people living here, especially considering everyone flexes their apts. there is constantly construction that makes it disruptive to work from home, and reduces access to the roof.
