Reviews

The waterfront setting and on-site staff drive much of the positive resident experience. The main friction comes from access to building services, particularly elevators, package pickup and amenities that carry an additional charge.

What residents praise

Views and quiet apartments

Strong pool and fitness program

The outdoor pool, sun deck, gym, spin and yoga rooms provide a deeper recreation package than many nearby buildings.

Residents report elevator breakdowns and slow service.

Amenity and package access has limits

Location

One North Fourth is located at 1 North 4th Place, New York, NY 11249. The building sits on the East River beside North 5th Street Pier and the ferry landing. Bedford Avenue's L train is about ten minutes away, so the ferry and a longer subway walk are both part of the location tradeoff.
