Parker Towers Apartamentos

Constant, very loud cinstruction noise for past 3 years. Makes working from home home or recovering from covid frustrating, But they still keep increasing rent despite no quiet enjoyment of residence. I call about construction noise, and they say management will help me, but transfer call to management where leave UNRETURNED voicemail.

I'd advise everyone to stay away from Parker Tower. I've been living here for less than a year, and my experience has been getting worse and worse. The buildings might look nice from the outside (and that was why I was willing to pay $2100 for a studio), but if you're unfortunate enough to live here, then you'll know they're very cheaply done. It takes forever to wait for an elevator even though there're 4 in each building. Walls are ridiculously thin, you can literally hear your neighbor's... conversations. Ceiling keeps leaking, and no matter how many times they patch it up, it keeps coming back. They say they're pet friendly, but you must pay $50 a month to have one and you can only enter and exit with your pet through the service entrance, which always stinks. When boxes are wrongly delivered to your door and you try to get them to the right people, instead of helping, the doorman would tell you to just discard them. Management bullies residents who voice their concerns. Everytime I say something, they'd come back a few days later telling me I've violated something so trivial such as putting a doormat outside of my apartment door. I have no intention of renewing my lease, and I'm sure they're not only used to it, they're happy to raise the rent even more. Lee mas

I lived at Parker Towers for 5 years and this year I am out. Not because I don't like it; it's because they raise the rent almost $300 every year. A lot of people move out because of this. So my rent is now $1500 more from when I moved in? I am on a "preferential rent" which means my apartment is Rent Stabilized but they charge a much lower rent because nobody would pay it. So now they just increase people who are in this rent category so they can add 20% when the person moves out and... deregulate the apartment. This place is a scam and should be investigated. Lee mas

Parker Towers looks great at first, lots of amenities, pet friendly, large and renovated units, but be warned, this is just the facade. The renovations are cheaply done, as are the finishes used in the apartments. There are roaches and mice, even squirrels, running around inside the building. The walls are paper thin, so be prepared to get to know your neighbors very well. In the summer, the stench from the dumpsters can be noticed from a block away and you will be forced to jump over... puddles of trash juice. Some of the "highlights" of my stay at Parker Towers include coming home to my apartment door being painted shut, the heavy metal door to the trash chute falling off on my hand, and the kitchen and closet doors falling off their hinges. As for being pet friendly, if you do have a pet, you will be charged $50 extra each month, be forced to walk your dog out the always smelly service entrance, and required to have your pet wear a building issued tag. To get in and out of the service entrance you have to scan your fingerprints and the scanner is rarely working properly. Lee mas

The place is infested with roaches. Filthy hallways and laundry machines have mold growing inside them. Don't let the fancy rental office fool you, they make it sound like a luxury building but it's a tenement. The "doormen" sit behind a desk and don't move to help you or to open a door so they really shouldn't be called doormen. They say the building is pet friendly yet you can't take your dog thru the lobby you have to bring it out the back alley that stinks like urine cos they never clean it.... The fancy waterfall they show in the brochures also hasn't worked for years. Don't be fooled by the fancy hype and pretty pictures, it's a real dump. Lee mas
