Reviews

The building itself and many on-site staff receive strong praise. The sharpest criticism concerns the automated garage and the difficulty reaching management about billing, repairs or security deposits.

What residents praise

Maintenance and front-desk staff stand out

Residents repeatedly describe individual maintenance, concierge and leasing staff as friendly, fast and willing to follow up.

Shared spaces support everyday life

The pool deck, fitness rooms, coworking and family spaces are often cited as reasons the building feels comfortable rather than purely functional.

Paulus Hook feels convenient and settled

Residents value the quieter neighborhood, nearby waterfront and manageable walk to both Grove Street and Exchange Place PATH.

What residents complain about

The automated garage is a major weak point

Drivers describe frequent equipment failures, long waits and cars becoming temporarily inaccessible despite the monthly charge.

Management can be hard to reach

Critical reviews describe unanswered calls and emails around billing, utilities and unresolved apartment problems.

Move-out deposits can take persistence

Several former residents report long delays receiving security-deposit checks. Keep the forwarding address, inspection and follow-up in writing.

Amenities

Lenox has a 24-hour concierge, fitness center, rooftop pool, landscaped courtyard and automated garage. Apartments have full-size washer/dryers, with a separate resident laundry room for oversized loads.
