Broker & Resident Comments

This "prime NoHo luxury rental" earns praise for its "superb location" at the crossroads of "SoHo, East Village, and Nolita," offering "easy access to countless restaurants and nightlife." The "well-maintained" building features "recently renovated common areas," "brand new gym equipment," and "pristine apartments" with "nice kitchens and bathrooms." While some grumble about "construction noise" and "renewal negotiations," the "extremely friendly and responsive" doormen and maintenance staff earn "consistent raves" from residents. "Pet-friendly" policies and "good closet space" round out the amenities at this "convenient" downtown address.
