Amazing place

New building, very clean and spacious.
Nice views and bright apartments.
Construction at the back of the building, but front units are absolutely quiet.
The building manager is very helpful and super available.
There is gym, storage, extra laundry room in the basement.
Amenities are new and suffcient.

Spacious

I love the layout of the apartment and the size. But it is quite pricey especially considering that the building doesn't have many amenities

Harold Square - Pretty Great

Great experience; with the construction across the street it has been a little noisy; however, that should subside in the next few months once the building is complete. The apartments are very nice and spacious but the building is lacking in amenities. Cannot beat the location - right across the street from bus stop and in the heart of the commons.

Constant Construction and No Sunlight

The apartment interior is nice enough, modern and clean. But the construction in the building coming up behind it has been going on for over a year with no end in sight. No strict timings are enforced so we've had to hear banging and drilling at all hours of the day (even 4:30am sometimes). The new building itself is just an alley way away from Harolds Square so it has now completely blocked any sunlight we would get leaving the apartment incredibly gloomy. If you're desperate for a modern building/apartment, then sure go for it. But its pretty terrible given these circumstances.

Great place to live but a bit expensive

I have lived in Harold Square for two years now and plan to live here again for my last year of law school. My apartment was very clean upon arrival and repainted. I like the floor plan and that there are large windows. You can hear noise from the commons especially on the weekend nights (if you live on the commons side of the building), but it is not too disruptive. The non-commons side of the building is facing construction which can be loud especially in the early morning.

Bare Bones

The construction of the building is very poor and there are a lot of maintenance issues you will face. For the same price you can get so many more amenities and a facilities team at other apartment building downtown.

Lacking in amenities, strong on convenience

Being so near the commons and TCAT bus system, there's convenient access to the things that matter to most MBAs. The building itself is in pretty good shape, though there are consistent issues, particularly with the elevator system that can cause backlogs. The apartment gym is just some cardio equipment, a smith machine, dumbbells, and a studio room. The building superintendent was very friendly and responsive, and a massive bonus for residents, though that position is currently vacant. Rent in all of Ithaca is way too high, but if you're going to pay a lot of money, Harolds Square is a decent place to spend it on.
