Broker & Resident Comments

This "true luxury" high-rise offers "spacious" apartments with "great fixtures" and an "impressive" amenity package including a "well-equipped gym," indoor basketball court, and a "gorgeous" roof deck with "nice views." While "pricey," residents praise the "awesome, friendly and helpful" staff and "24-hour" maintenance response. The building features both market-rate and affordable units, with "impeccable" service extended to all residents. Sound insulation can be "challenging" on lower floors, but the "slightly tucked away" 10th Avenue location offers proximity to parks and conveniences. The "fantastic" doormen and porters maintain this "constantly maintained" property with "amazing" attention to detail.
