  Had a smooth leasing experience with Anna and the Beacon team. Overall, a well maintained housing complex with a number of amenities and stunning views of NYC skyline! Residents also get shuttle service to Grove Street and Exchange Place facilitating access to PATH and other public transportation.

  Moved into the Beacon recently and encountered a few issues with the new unit while settling in, but thankfully the maintenance team has been amazing in responding in a very timely manner. And a special shout out to Jason, who always goes above and beyond to resolve any situation. He also keeps his words -- at one point I had a washer issue that needed a specialized crew member and the request had been pending for a few days. I mentioned this to Jason while he was fixing a separate issue, and he said he'd personally touch base with his team about it since it's kind of urgent. Typically you'd think that's just something people say and they'll forget the minute they leave, but to my pleasant surprise a couple of hours later the specialty crew member showed up!! Jason is super considerate too --- he's the only maintenance person I've seen ANYWHERE over the years who puts on shoe covers before entering the apartment to prevent tracking dirts all over the apartment!

  Jason did an amazing job! He came in and successfully fixed the light above my stove top. He was so professional and kind. He did everything so meticulously and quickly.

  James was awesome to work with! He was always friendly, easy to reach, and never minded answering my questions. I asked to see the apartment several times, and he was so patient every single time. He took his time showing me not just the apartment, but the entire property, and made sure all of my questions were answered. I never felt rushed, and he was genuinely helpful throughout. I really appreciated his friendliness, patience, and great attitude. Thanks, James!

  I spoke with Mika about signing a new lease, and the experience was extremely disappointing. She was extremely rude to talk to, did not seem to consider any of my concerns, and was extremely unhelpful throughout the conversation. She literally ruined this experience for me. I also found that the leasing office did not clearly disclose several additional charges upfront, which only became apparent later. For example, they told me they could hold an apartment for up to four weeks. However, after I had already paid the non-refundable application fee, I was informed that the monthly rent would increase if I chose a move-in date later than the apartment's available date. This important detail was not disclosed before I paid the fee. When I asked for a refund because this was clearly a lapse on their part, Mika said "ABSOLUTELY NOT". An absolutely awful experience. If you're considering signing a lease at The Beacon, I recommend reviewing the lease carefully, asking detailed questions about all fees and pricing policies, and getting any verbal promises confirmed in writing before committing.
