Oliver on the Hudson is a 401-apartment Port Liberté rental completed in 2025, with spacious homes, in-unit laundry, a large fitness program, heated pool, courtyards and covered parking. Residents praise the staff, fast maintenance and waterfront setting, while water odor, repeated fire alarms and a car- or ferry-dependent commute are the main concerns in this still-new building.
Oliver’s strongest feedback is for its friendly staff, fast maintenance and unusually broad amenities. As one of the newest buildings in Port Liberté, it has also had visible opening-period problems, especially water odor and fire alarms, alongside the practical limits of the location.
Residents repeatedly praise the leasing, front-desk and maintenance teams for clear communication, welcoming move-ins and repairs handled within minutes or hours.
The pool, multilevel gym, grills, lounges, work spaces and pet facilities earn detailed praise, with residents also valuing clean common areas and organized events.
Residents like the larger layouts, closets, full-size laundry, modern appliances and quiet Port Liberté setting, with the ferry close to the property.
Multiple residents reported a rotten-egg or sewage smell from taps and showers; some say treatment improved it, while later feedback indicates the problem did not disappear for every apartment.
Residents describe repeated overnight alarms, sound through walls and hallways and finishes that can feel lighter-duty than the rent suggests.
The ferry is convenient when its schedule works, but the area is car-dependent for many errands; residents also criticize the shuttle and the added $200 monthly garage cost.
Oliver on the Hudson has in-unit laundry, an attended front desk and automated package service. Shared spaces include a two-story fitness center, outdoor pool, courtyards and sky lounge terrace, with a large attached garage.
