Moving to The Octagon was the best decision for me. My only regret is not moving here sooner! The staff is incredibly attentive and made me feel at home from day one. The management team is responsive, and they regularly host community events that make this huge city feel like a close-knit community. The Concierge staff know my name, wish me a great day as I dash out for my morning commute and welcome me home by name when I return in the evening. It's rare to find this level of service in NYC. ...
The Octagon features stunning living spaces, finishes, and the amenity spaces—including the lobby, courtyard and fitness center—are maintained beautifully. I'll never tire of the breathtaking sunsets overlooking the city skyline! The Octagon has become my sanctuary amid the chaos of city life.

The Octagon has a lot to offer in terms of location and atmosphere, but my experience has been impacted by a roach infestation that started from day one. Despite multiple treatments, the issue has persisted, which has made it difficult to feel fully comfortable at home. I hope to see more effective and lasting solutions implemented.

June 30, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
I recently moved into The Octagon, and it truly feels like a dream come true. Just 4 minutes from the Upper East Side, yet it feels miles away from the chaos and downsides of Manhattan — this island is a real hidden paradise. The commute is surprisingly easy and flexible, thanks to the private shuttle, bus, F train, tram, and ferry. From my very first visit, I felt at home. The leasing team is fantastic — helpful, supportive, and patient — and every staff member is professional, warm, and ...
welcoming. The building is always spotless, well maintained, and the common areas and outdoor spaces are beautifully manicured. I love the sense of safety and tranquility here; my kids can roam freely without worry, and even the subway feels clean and comfortable. The views are breathtaking, and living here truly feels like a blessing. The Octagon is everything I always dreamed of but never found in Manhattan — relaxing, safe, and full of warmth.
