The Oyster Apartments

Yes, it’s an amazing view and very nice area and the apartments are very nice and modern. BUT the walls are terribly thin and you don’t realize how much that effects your living comfort until you experience it. My neighbor would blast music with a lot of bass all hours of the night, to the point where I had to make a noise complaint with the police and nothing came of it. In fact, my neighbor got even more upset and played his music even louder. I complained to the building multiple times, as my... neighbor was clearly violating his lease by being a disturbance. Management (Lester) did absolutely nothing. He was also impossible to reach. Never answered the phone and responded to emails a month later, if that. The cons definitely outweighs the pros here Read More

I will rate this place as 0 when it comes to noise and marijuana odor . You pay an arm and a leg to live in a marijuana house. Don't believe the non smoking in the lease. It doesn't matter for managenent. A large percentage smoke marijuana and the walls are so thin that you literally get high in your own house. Second hand odor is extreme and management takes no steps to prevent smoking. You can't enjoy your balcony because most of people around you smoke marijuana. Elevators, hallways, common... places are infused with the marijuana odor and your apartment will smells like rotten eggs.Noise is also quite high, you can hear your neighbors constantly. So if you are a smoker you will do fine. I think this place has a reputation for smoking because lately I see an increase of people who smoke marijuana. Read More

There is no soundproofing between units here, and the management's ability to handle the work is the worst. I regret coming here and I can't sleep at night because of the noise. You have to suffer from noise until 4AM, and earplugs are a must. If you want quiet privacy, absolutely don't come here.

Yes, easy access to Manhattan. Yes, view is nice. That it.
Dog friendly building and most tenants have dogs and always unlash the dogs when they going up and down inside the building.
Some small dogs are very aggressive and constantly barking and even trying to get to you. Some tenants just let their dog pee at the small fake garden next to the building entrance and make the place smell so badly.
The staff, especially management, is dismissive and rude and completely useless. They never reply... the email even though you follow up three four times with them.
This building is not quiet at all beside the dogs barking and some tenants like to party and their guests leaving at 2, 3 o'clocks in the morning and yelling at the hallway. And this happen constantly.
This place is totally far from a " luxury " building.
There are so many residential building along Edgewater which will be much better than here and I have few friends live around and told me so. Cant wait my lease end and get the hell out of here. Read More

Easy access to Manhattan, Hoboken, Jersey City and Fort Lee. Love my apartment. So much more room and killer views. My previous Manhattan apartment had half the square footage for the same price. Nice to be able to walk along the river. Everything is close by. This is a dog-friendly building and there are a lot of dogs – all very nice. The building team try to make you very happy and comfortable. I looked at many other apartments in the area and was not impressed. I am in the... process of renewing my lease for another year.
