Broker & Buyer Comments

This 1967 building boasts "fantastic" amenities including a "great" pool, health club, and "1/2 acre outdoor backyard" that's "great for children," plus "long-time" staff who are praised as "great" and apartments with "great views" (despite "ok" 8-foot ceilings); the "great neighborhood for families" features "two of the best elementary schools in Manhattan" (PS 166 and PS 158), "plenty of restaurants," and Sotheby's across the street ("as good as having a museum"), though the "15 min walk" to the Lex Ave subway is a trek; however, the condo conversion has residents crying foul over "WAY above market" pricing and "extremely bad" management experiences with deposit returns requiring "an attorney."
