Help! Recent Opinions about 710 6th Ave.
We read a older article about the troubling lack of sales on 710 6th Ave (22nd street). Recently, the owner as decided to rent... We are exploring renting here. Does anyone have any opinions about problems with this property, developer, or why these seemingly lovely apartments aren't selling?

I used to live a few doors down from that building. Although I never went inside the building, I can tell you that from living next to it throughout the construction period, that the construction was shady. My neighbor went to the open houses and said that the apartments were a mess because the interiors had been finished before the windows were installed, resulting in the floors being damaged and warped from the rain.
If you are thinking about renting, I would take a close look at the place to see if there is any residual damage, mold, mildrew, etc.
As to why the apartments aren't selling: they are a block away from a ConEd substation, there was (or may still be) other buildings on the block under construction. This particular building had poor constuction and was incredibly overpriced. Several price cuts never resulted in sales.
