Broker & Resident Comments

This midtown residence offers an "excellent location" especially for those working in or enjoying midtown Manhattan. The building features "three elevators," a gym, and a roof deck, though some find the amenities "need attention." While the "staff is generally helpful" if you get to know them, the building's package handling policies are notably "strict." Units offer standard living spaces, though some note the walls are "not that thick." Expect typical city noise levels due to "ongoing construction" in the area.
