| Project | Overall | Structure & systems | Management & living |
|---|---|---|---|
| 499 PresidentGowanus, Brooklyn, New York350 units | 7.9/ 10 | —/ 10 | 7.9/ 10 |
Google Reviews/Maps provides the only qualifying review-based aggregate located for the building: 4.3/5 from 11 reviews, which converts to 7.9/10 using the specified curve. The six positive and one negative displayed reviews support a generally favorable living assessment, but the single air-quality/mice allegation was not applied as a recurring adjustment; no publishable structural rating was found. | |||
One displayed review alleged that leasing staff failed to disclose “the air quality (cancer)” and a “huge mice problem,” but this was a single resident-style allegation rather than a published structural rating or independently verified engineering finding. The other opened review material did not publish resident feedback on plumbing, HVAC, electrical infrastructure, leaks or waterproofing. | The available reviews describe a generally positive day-to-day impression: one reviewer praised the “polite and friendly” door staff, a naturally lit gym and large closets, while another called the Brodsky team “extremely responsive and helpful.” A separate review was sharply negative, alleging undisclosed air-quality concerns and a “huge mice problem”; this is a single report and should not be treated as independently verified. | ||
| Brooklyn CrossingProspect Heights, Brooklyn, New York858 units | 7.1/ 10 | 7.9/ 10 RentCafe 4.5/5 · 95 reviews · rentcafe.com RentCafe publishes 4.5/5 from 95 reviews. Adjusted for where resident ratings usually fall, and weighted toward the 6.5 midpoint (more strongly the fewer the reviews), that gives 7.9. | 7.2/ 10 RentCafe 3/5, 4.5/5, 5/5, 4/5, 4.5/5, 4/5 · 95 reviews · rentcafe.com Combined from 6 published figures on 1 platform, weighted by review count, adjusted for where resident ratings usually fall and weighted toward the 6.5 midpoint where reviews are few: 7.2. |
RentCafe has the largest reported review base, 95, so its 4.0/5 overall rating sets the level at 7.0 before commentary. Openigloo and Google provide meaningful but smaller corroboration; the mixed written evidence supports a modest downward adjustment for management responsiveness and water/build-quality failures, partially offset by repeated praise for staff, cleanliness and amenities. | |||
Structural feedback is mixed. RentCafe publishes a 4.5/5 maintenance rating, but Google reviews report “dirty water issues,” being without clean hot water for an entire winter, and a unit with a dishwasher disconnection, toilet leak and stovetop electrical issues; the latter reviewer said the “build quality of the unit is terrible.” | Day-to-day reviews praise the staff, cleanliness and facilities: one resident called the doormen “amazing,” while RentCafe reviews describe staff as “super helpful” and communication with management as good. The negative evidence is also direct: residents report that management was “frequently unresponsive,” describe rules as unnecessarily strict, and say paid amenity-room grills failed without reimbursement. | ||
| Plank Road — residential componentProspect Heights, Brooklyn, New York313 units | 7.0/ 10 | 8.7/ 10 RentCafe 5/5 · 26 reviews · rentcafe.com RentCafe publishes 5/5 from 26 reviews. Adjusted for where resident ratings usually fall, and weighted toward the 6.5 midpoint (more strongly the fewer the reviews), that gives 8.7. | 6.8/ 10 RentCafe 3/5, 4.5/5, 5/5, 4/5, 3.5/5 · 26 reviews · rentcafe.com Combined from 5 published figures on 1 platform, weighted by review count, adjusted for where resident ratings usually fall and weighted toward the 6.5 midpoint where reviews are few: 6.8. |
RentCafe has the largest published review base at 26 reviews and sets the level at 4.0/5, converted to 7.0/10 under the specified curve. Google’s 4.2/5 from 24 reviews is directionally consistent and does not differ by more than one converted point. The written themes are mixed: repeated praise for staff and amenities offsets recurring but moderate complaints about noise, maintenance and management. | |||
Structural feedback is mixed. One resident said “every single appliance broke at least 3 times,” filed “roughly 20 maintenance requests,” and found the windows “horribly insulated,” while RentCafe published a 5.0/5 maintenance sub-score; another review described the building as “well taken care of.” The construction-noise complaint concerned prolonged jackhammering on floors 6–12, not a reported structural failure. | Day-to-day reviews strongly praise the staff: residents call them “friendly,” “kind” and “incredible,” and describe the porters as continuously cleaning. Amenities also receive repeated praise, including a gym that “has EVERYTHING you need” and a pool, rooftop and coworking lounge; however, other residents report prolonged jackhammering, roughly 20 maintenance requests, and management that was “toxic” or “curt and unapologetic.” |
