Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by 78/79 YORK ASSOCIATES LLC consistently praise responsive and helpful management, with maintenance requests typically addressed quickly. Many appreciate the cleanliness of common areas and the overall safety of the buildings. Rent stabilization and utilities-included options add to tenant satisfaction. However, noise issues due to thin walls and occasional disruptive neighbors persist, with some tenants feeling management could be more proactive in handling these. Pest control is inconsistent; while some report no issues, others face ongoing problems like roaches and rodents that aren't fully resolved. Garbage management generally receives high marks, but a few note concerns about garbage storage practices.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Lived here since August '25

Pros

Good layout, no pests as far as I am concerned. Love the rooms, very spacious.

Cons

My neighbor is loud. I have no idea how he has not been kicked out, and nothing is really being done about it.

Former tenant·3 months ago

Non-stop noise, paper thin walls, dogs everywhere

Pros

Affordable as a first time studio, located on the east river with trees and laundry on the block. Utilities included and no broker fees (if your real estate agent is taking you here, they’re scammers).

Cons

Expect to hear everything your neighbors on all sides of you do. After living in this building for 5 years, I’ve seen a new neighbor on every side every lease renewal because it’s honestly very difficult to tolerate hearing everything single sound your neighbor makes. Not sure if apartments were once larger and then separated by rice paper, but I shouldn’t be able to hear every detail of my neighbors life. Hear is controlled by management and apartment is usually hotter than a sauna, but I don’t pay for it so whatever.

Advice to the owners

Allow pets with a size limit. Be proactive in stopping noise (your rental office is in the same corridor where barking dogs can be heard reverberating all day).
