Tenant Reviews for 310 E 44TH ST

Most of the apartments in the Beaux Art are studios and as Manhattan studios go, these are some of the nicest. Spacious living area, separate efficiency kitchens, walk-in closets, nicely appointed baths, Murphy bed alcoves, decent ceiling hight, thick pre-war walls keep noise to a minimum.<br><br>The building is well maintained and the doormen are great. It's an exceptionally safe and convenient neighborhood. Activities connected with the UN will sometimes restrict traffic on 44th street, but I find it keeps things quieter overall (no honking or car alarms). I've been here 16 years and remain very happy with the building.

I lived at the Beaux Arts (in the 307 E 44th St bldg) from March 1999 until Feb 2005. The building is very old, so if your intention is to live in a "luxury high rise", the Beaux Arts is not for you. However, the doorman are great, and if something in your apartment breaks, it is fixed quickly. Finally, the rent is very reasonable and you can't beat the location. Just remember, when the General Assembly at the UN opens it's session each September, the Secret Service will shut down the street for the entire opening week (so you will need to carry ID at all times to prove you live in the building). Other than that one minor inconvenience, I recommend the Beaux Arts.
