Renters Reviews and Ratings
this is a fraudulent listing
April 14, 2026Called to get into the building lease office for a tour and the person that answered the phone number listed said the building was fully leased even though it has listings available on the website as well as he had no idea when I was looking to move. This is a fraudulent listingReview from Apartments.com
Couldn’t Be Happier
November 23, 2025From day one, The McManus just felt right — clean, modern, and really thoughtfully put together. There’s a calm, respectful vibe throughout the building that makes it feel welcoming the moment you walk in. My apartment itself is bright and spacious. The high ceilings and big windows make the whole place feel open and airy. Everything being new is definitely a plus, but what really stands out are the high-end finishes — they make the space feel a step above the typical apartment. One thing I ...truly appreciate is how consistently clean and well-kept the building is. The common areas always look cared for. Management has been great too — responsive, friendly, and genuinely easy to work with. Overall, I couldn’t be happier calling The McManus home.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Hidden Gem
November 7, 2025I was one of the first tenants in the building, so far I’ve been really pleased with my decision to rent an apartment here. It’s close to my job and I can get down to NYC easily to visit family. The management were a breeze to work with and addressed any questions I had promptly.Review from Apartments.com
Love the Building!
November 6, 2025We are new tenants in the McManus Building, for just over a month now. The building was recently finished after what must have been a very extensive renovation. Everything is new and the quality of finishes is above and beyond compared to some of the other buildings we toured. It's extremely quiet and the lounge and gym are great spaces! The location is super convenient too!Review from Apartments.com
We love the apartment!
November 3, 2025We just moved in about a month ago and are loving everything about the property! The big windows bring in so much natural light into the apartment and everything is brand new! Dishwasher, easy to clean stove tops, a HUGE bathroom, and the communal gym is perfect for a quick workout! There’s plenty of washers on every floor so finding an open washer hasn’t been challenging and the building is located in a great area! Truly nothing to complain about!Review from Apartments.com
Great place to call home
November 3, 2025I’ve been really happy living here. The complex is new, clean, and has a great modern feel — all the appliances are brand new and everything just works the way it should. The neighbors are friendly, professional, and respectful, which makes the community feel really comfortable and safe. It’s quiet, well-kept, and the management actually cares — they’re quick to respond and keep the place looking great. Overall, it’s been a really positive experience and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone ...looking for a nice, modern place to live.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
