Broker & Resident Comments

Add Your Own Comment

This "office-to-residential conversion" offers "spacious" units with "9-foot ceilings" and "ample closet space," complemented by "first-rate fixtures" and a "very nice lobby." While the "extremely professional" doormen and "amazing" super earn consistent praise, tenants note the building's "paper-thin walls" can be problematic. Amenities include a "convenient" laundry room, roof deck, and gym, though some find these facilities "basic." Pre-war charm comes with typical vintage building challenges, leading to mixed reviews about overall value proposition.
