Fantastic location, pool in building

Great building with amazing staff. The gym has a swimming pool and whirlpool and standard fitness equipment, as well as a sauna (slightly odd hours, though, for the pool and whirlpool). Only a few minutes' walk to Grand Central Terminal. There is a slightly overpriced and small but serviceable supermarket less than 1 minute walk away, and a couple of drugstores within a few blocks. Area always feels very safe. Only complaints are noise from fire trucks (near a fire station) and neighbors who seem to smoke a lot (not the building's fault, though).

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.

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).

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.
