La Premiere

I’ve never lived in a building that was as terribly mismanaged as this one. My two roommates and I lived here for two years because we agreed to a long-term lease. We spoke with many other renters during our time here that all agree with our experience. Many other reviews mention the same but the super Vasel and doorman Omar made our lives a living nightmare with various rules that were made up on the spot and multiple counts of harassment. Upon moving out Omar told us that he was “thrilled we were leaving”. He also yelled at our movers and didn’t allow them into the building despite us having a COI. You have to interact with these individuals far more than you’d expect. Don’t get fooled by cheap rent and the large space, it’s not worth it you will have to endure the worst management and doormen that treat you as a nuisance rather than a customer.

NOT A RENT STABILIZED BUILDING. Only redeeming quality about this building is it's location and a couple of the porters. Building management and the landlords are absolutely unhelpful. For the two years I've lived here, atleast one out of the three elevators has been broken, gym has been closed and so has the rooftop. For not having access to any amenities and old appliances, the landlord here raised the rents by 33%. If you are looking to rent here, be ready to shell out $$$$$$

Terrible building and management from Douglas Elliman David Mandracchia. They will increase you rent as much as they can squeeze you for when it is time to renew. The building rooftop is closed for construction and the "gym" is actually a package room. ZERO amenities in this building, not worth the price despite the convenient location. Fortunately most of the doorman and building staff are friendly except for the regular daytime doorman Omar

This building is really good location. Overall the whole apartment was pretty good and Douglas Elliman was a very professional management company. I would rate it 4 except for the super, Vasel, who tried to stop me from moving out on my move out day. I forwarded my lawyer a recording of the super being hostile and clearly being discriminatory. There is a reason the building is now half empty and it’s because no one wants to deal with him. On top of that last year, a drug lab exploded. That’s right. There were two apartments next to each other and they somehow combined them. I don’t understand how you can allow something like that to happen and still keep the super in there. The guy is a walking lawsuit waiting to happen.

Horrible service. One of the doorman has discrimination on Asian. Once he locked my package and did not give me until I tried to call Amazon. Another time I locked myself out of the room, the doorman would not give me back up key and left me in the wind!

Lived there and flat was cool with reasonable staff

HORRIBLE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT, old units, high rent, kind of half scam artist doormen, bad maintenance, elevators take forever, rooftop “terrace” closed about 50 weeks out of the year. Seriously do not live here.
