    Corner unit with skyline views on a high floor. Sunsets through the windows are stunning. The resident app makes booking the rooftop or reporting a repair simple. I would like more bike storage racks, but otherwise very happy here.

    The playroom is bright and well kept, the staff is friendly, and Levain is a short walk when the craving hits. We have had zero issues with the in-unit laundry or the central air through a hot July.

    Our dog loves the pet spa more than we do. The courtyard is pleasant and the screening room is a fun spot for a movie night with friends. Pricing is what you would expect for the area, but the finishes hold up.

    I work from home three days a week and the coworking suites downstairs are quiet, well lit and never feel cramped. My office nook upstairs is great too. Having the B and C a few minutes away makes the other two days easy.

    Nice building and a great location by the museum, but the elevators were slow during the week a lot of people were moving in. Maintenance did fix a dishwasher issue within a day, which I appreciated. Overall decent, a few growing pains.

    Moved here from a walk-up and the cold-storage package room alone changed my life. Groceries delivered while I am at work just wait for me. Rooftop on a summer night with the grills going is hard to beat.

    The saltwater pool is the real reason I signed. It is rarely crowded on weekday evenings and the water is kept warm. Only knock is that the gym gets busy around 7 a.m., but the spin studio next door usually has an open bike.

    I walk into Central Park almost every morning, and it takes me about two minutes to get there. The apartment itself has huge windows and the motorized shades are something I did not know I needed. The doormen know everyone by name.
