Nice building, unethical leasing office…read more Our rent was increased by over $2000 in 3 years - an overall increase of over 40 percent. The most recent renewal offer (2023) was a 25% increase from the previous year. When we chose this building we chose it over other buildings with more attractive incentives specifically because we were told that Brodsky's strategy is to keep good tenants and to not make huge jumps in rent year over year. That was the opposite of our experience. As new features were added (a gym and resident lounge) these were not "included" in our increased rent - you are expected to pay additional for them. I can now see that our exact unit is renting for $350 less per month than what we were offered for a renewal, and this is after they've made renovations to the unit. It's painfully obvious that they discount to lure new tenants in and then jack up the rent every subsequent year. If you are looking to live somewhere for more than a year, avoid this management company and this property in particular.

This building needs new management…read more That includes new maintenance management as well. It is really sad as this building has so much potential. My main issues are that the building just takes and takes and doesn't give. From the time I moved in, the apt that I had looked at and was told I would move into was different and dirty when I moved in. It was not given to me in move in condition. The floors were raised and not even nailed in properly. The apartment was covered in dirt and only part of the apartment was painted. The marble in the bathroom was stained yellow and disgusting. I tried to refuse move in but this was the only option. I had to argue back in fourth with Vebbi about getting new floors and he did not give me new floors. What he did do and told me is "they switched the flooring they used and my apt is not eligible for new floors so he had to find leftover wood from old apts to Put in my apartment. I don't even know how that's hygienic. It's disgusting to be honest. Now I just signed another lease for more money because it was too much trouble to move and I asked for new floors because there was a water leak and looked like there was like there. He did the same thing, just gave me old damaged wood. There are no window screens which makes it super dirty and bugs get in during spring and summer. There are major issues with the AC and washer and dryer. The pet amenity, one of the reasons I stayed was not hygienic either. I sent my dog there in December when all of these other dogs got sick and spent thousands of dollars that month on vet bills because my dog got giardia fr other dogs peeing in water fountain. They finally fixed the water fountain. I know I am not the only one as I talk to all of the dog parents and have made friends in the building. They all complain about maintenance manager. I want to be clear that Nelson and Chris are wonderful. Everyone complains about the same things, washer dryer, floors, no window screens, dirty building, piles of trash in trash room and amenities not working.

The doormen and maintenance staff in this building are absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, they…read moreare being let down by a budget constrained and disinterested management team. The building is persistently in a state of disrepair. For years, the building's elevators break down continuously, regularly causing 20-30 minute delays and long lines in the lobby areas. The building's amenities - which comprise of a few windowless basement rooms - were previously free, but Rudin now requires all residents to pay a mandatory "fee" in exchange for the privilege of using what they used to get for free. Furthermore, and most alarmingly, if you're unlucky enough to live in a unit which suffers flooding damage from the building's dilapidated infrastructure, Rudin will take no steps to compensate you, nor to replace your destroyed property. Despite this, management will raise your rent 8-12% annually and engage in every effort to extort every last cent they possibly can. To all perspective tenants: on your tour, look for the "elevator out of service" signs, the disorganized and garbage filled basement corridors, and the undisclosed mandatory amenity fee and ask yourself: in a city full of options, is this the landlord I want to do business with?

They were consistently helpful, professional, and incredibly kind throughout the process. I truly appreciated their support. I also want to commend the building staff--the doormen, porters, and package room attendants--who have always been outstanding. In such a large building, it's impressive how they know every resident by name and go out of their way to be helpful. A heartfelt thank you to everyone. Your warmth and dedication made living here a great experience.

The building is in desperate need of renovations, hasn't been updated in decades. Worn and dirty carpets and wallpaper. 20 floor building that is often without 1 of (only) 2 elevators due to safety and constant need for repair. Contrary to what they will tell you, the building does NOT EVEN HAVE A DEDICATED SUPERINTENDENT. They fired the last one without even informing the residents and have not replaced. Rudin never takes accountability, often does not communicate with tenants, and, worst of all, RAISES RENT NEARLY 15% ANNUALLY- condoning the increases on the basis of being 'one of the few rentals on CPW.' This year, tenants are leaving in droves. I'd rather live 1 block away from the park in a building with amenities and functioning elevators than deal with this management company. Be warned.

A beautiful building…read more I grew up in it. It's one of the last buildings built during the heyday on CPW. It's style is what sets it apart: it's clad in a beatific off-white, beige brick, with its 90th street corner curved. Even though it was built 'post-war,' the apartments still have the exposed beams, & (thank goodness!) thick plaster walls (no gypsum board). In the mid-late 80's, a building was to b erected on the corner of 88th & CPW (a school had been in that location). The architects who 'designed' the building you currently see on 88th did a LOT of studying - & copying - of 295's architectural hallmarks, including it's shape (almost a cheap looking carbon copy), as we as the curved windows.

My fiancé and I have resided at the Monterey at 1501 Lexington approaching two years now. We're in…read morethe process of renewing our lease once again. We absolutely love it! I cannot think of one con that we've experience during our time here. Our cozy little studio overlooking Lexington avenue is most certainly "home" and besides our own efforts to make it so within our apartment, the Monterey itself provides countless reasons to always have a place in our hearts. MANAGEMENT The management is absolutely phenomenal. Since day one, Vincent (manager) and his team have been extremely accommodating, helpful, efficient, organized, prepared, sharp and best of all, genuinely happy, smiling faces. I have tremendous respect for all of the guys up front and most of them I've built strong enough relationships with to consider them my friends. LOCATION You can't beat the location. It takes literally 40 seconds from leaving the building to swiping in on the 6-train. It speeds up the commute, makes winters and rainy city days less frustrating and my favorite part is on the way home when your train pulls in to 96th street you're already "home". The neighborhood itself is also wonderful. Three quality grocery stores, a starbucks, a barbershop, CVS, restaurants, a wine store, central park (5 minute walk), and the absolutely wonderful Catholic Parish St. Francis de Sales is right around the corner and has become an integral part of our lives.   EMPLOYEES Every employee in our building is an an absolute pleasure. They truly care about the residents and it shows day-in and day-out. It's really great to come home to a smiling face and a helping hand on a daily basis. They handle all of our packages and keep everything organized with an online portal. They provide printouts if needed, secure backups keys if locked out and handle guest and delivery arrivals. Constant and efficient communication helps us so much. CLEANLINESS The building is so well taken care of, even the garbage rooms smell amazing. A lot of time and effort goes into making the building look amazing at all times. One of our favorite parts is the fresh, beautiful flower arrangements at the entrance every week. REPAIRS/REQUESTS Anytime we have a maintenance request or need something repaired in our apartment, Michael is there within a few hours, sometimes minutes with a big smile and solve. Sometimes it's shocking how fast things get done around here. It's very comforting. ROOFTOP The true gem of this building is the rooftop area that allows you to get some quiet time and feel like you are taking a step away from the craziness of the city. There's nothing better than having a dinner on the terrace on a warm summer night or laying out for some sun on hot summer's day. It's very big and allows for fun weekend guest entertainment. Plus, it holds a very special place in our hearts as this is where I proposed to my fiancé with a candle-lit, late-night proposal. Here's a video of what management helped me coordinate to pull this 1,000 candle rooftop terrace success: https://vimeo.com/137773338  All-in-all, the Monterey is and has been an incredible experience that will always be an integral part of our lives and growth as a young couple. We hope this helps make your decision on your next home easier! - Mark and Janay
