Noise from neighbors and barking dogs will drive you crazy

Terrible/non-existent soundproofing and the management does not address noise complaints. They simply (say that) they issue lease violations (I am still wondering whether these have any actual implications; management will not answer what the implications are) to the tenants that make noise (dog barking day and night) for 6+ months. Still no solution to the issue.

Spacious Apartments in a Fun Area

Very spacious apartment, with generous sized bedrooms. Laundry in building and lots of amenities within the complex including basketball courts and outdoor gym. StuyTown Cafe and Library also within the complex. Fun neighborhood with lots of great bars and restaurants within a 10 minute radius. Also across the street from Trader Joe's, CVS, and the L 1st Ave stop.

The L can be a pain to rely on, but the 14th St. bus is efficient and Union Sq is a 10-12 min walk away.

Nice apt in parklike setting

Stuytown is nice and quiet because it has a small park in the middle and doesn't feel like it is right in the center of a busy city. Management is prompt when we need something fixed. For the first year, internet is included for free.

Reviewed by Fordham Law Student living at Wilshire Plaza
I always feel safe and welcome. The people are very nice and talkative. The sights are truly remarkable and living in Midtown is an extraordinary experience, especially with the bar and restaurant scene, the entertainment scene, and so forth. Even Central Park is a wonderland to explore in itself and can be done freely. What's also a highlight about this location is the accessibility of places and people around you; everything is in walking distance, unless you're looking to venture to another area of New York City. You will never run out of places to explore and people to engage with, as people are always traveling to and from New York City - it is a melting pot of many cultures and ethnicities and one of the most diverse places in the world.

I LOVE living in Chelsea. It's close enough to the office so the commute isn't bad but there is so much good food and nightlife around you so you feel very connected socially.

Center of the Universe, between time square and central park.

For commute to school, the NYU shuttle is extremely convenient with travel time under 15mins.
Reviewed by Fordham Gabelli Student living at Midwest Court
Great bars and restaurants, and close to Central Park, but a distinct lack of affordable grocery options.
Reviewed by NYU Law Student living at Kips Bay Court
5 minute walk to Trader Joe's. Target in-building. Fairway 3 minute walk away. Several bars and restaurants nearby on Third Ave. 40 minute walk to Washington Square Park area. 10 minute walk to the closest subway (the 6), but there are bus lanes nearby. Incredibly close to two major hospitals (great during the COVID age, but lots of ambulance sirens).
Reviewed by Young Professional living at Windsor Court
See first thing I wrote. Kips bay/murray hill has a great bar and restaurant scene, very young. You don't really go out Friday/Saturday night here, not enough dancing type bars, but it's awesome for just about every other occasion. Central location for everywhere that you would go in any situation though.
Reviewed by Stern MBA Student living at Peter Cooper Village
Great food, bars, and people and very close to multiple modes of transport to easily get anywhere in the city. There are several bus stops right at your doorstep and a ferry about a two minute walk over on the Ave C side. Easy access to East River Walk for other activities and sports as well. Very easy to get to major hub at Union Square by foot or transport.
