Top Flat Complexs in Weehawken, United States

Okay, so here’s the lowdown on 1500 Harbor Blvd: the front desk can sometimes feel like a ghost town, and when the crew is around, let’s just say they’re not always handing out smiles. And about the packages – it’s a bit of a treasure hunt, honestly; some parcels just embark on their own little adventure. Oh, and a heads-up about the hidden fees from the management – they’ve got a way of sneaking up on you, kinda like ninjas in the night that hit you when you less expect them. Also, it seems like the trash bins are having a bit of a party outside, could do with a bit of a tidy-up and less smelly.

"Exceptional leasing management services! From start to finish, the team Nicole and Raffi demonstrated utmost professionalism, efficiency, and a keen attention to detail. They made the leasing process seamless, addressing any concerns promptly. Their commitment to client satisfaction truly sets them apart. Highly recommend for a stress-free leasing experience!"

We had lived at Harbor 1500 since 2020 and recently moved out. Do yourself a favor and do not move to these apartments. They seem "nice" but they are a disaster.

First things first, we lived in 3 separate units in our time in the building. The second unit had so much condensation that the floors were coming up and there was mold above and underneath the floor boards (attaching videos that show the mold and condensation). I lost a lot of meaningful possessions, such as my wedding shoes and many other valuable items to the mold. They transferred us into another unit and things just got progressively worse.

The fire alarms go off at all times of the night. There was one circumstance where there was a bomb threat. Another time where the AC went out and they didn't fix it for days. Then construction started and it was so loud that both my husband and I had received comments from our coworkers that they could hear it during meetings. The building also smells terribly but they cover it up in the lobby with perfume because otherwise it would straight up smell like poop. This is the farthest thing from luxury living.

I could go on and on for the reasons this building and the management team are truly the worst, but then this review would be extremely long, so just do yourself a favor and do not live here. Pay attention to the negative reviews. They're there for a reason.

As a new resident, I appreciate the leasing office managers being available and attentive for questions and issues. Colleen Pepe and Nicole Ivonnet both have made my moving-in experience at Hamilton Cove a great one! They have gone above and beyond my expectations than any leasing team I’ve met in the past.

If I could give zero stars I would. Save your time and money, many other buildings in the area that are most likely better maintained. All pictures look extremely nice but not a thing works besides the gym (which didn’t have AC for most of the summer). Every tv in the common rooms don’t work, theatre room consistently broken, golf simulator has been broken for as long as I can remember. Nothing in this building actually works or has quality. The employees just yes you and say it will be fixed when it won’t. Oh and they also have a bug problem and I hear rats running through the walls. Stay away!

walls are paper thin. neighbors are rude. i have made a number of noise complaints, but the management seems to not care. I have been facing the same issue almost every night since I moved in back in December. Video shows how much noise comes into my bedroom from my next door. Listen to the video with earphones or speakers to really hear how much bass sound travels from my next door. These recordings are from the same night. Even after two visits from the security and a visit from local police, the noise continues through the night.

I was weary moving into this apartment complex because of some of the low reviews. However, I could not be happier with my decision to move into this apartment complex. I'm not one to write reviews, but seeing as this building is not highly rated and should be, I decided to write one.

The staff is super friendly and helpful. The leasing office always promptly responds to my inquiries. The amenities in this building are fantastic & the appliances in the actual apartments are great (the appliances are new & the apartments have very large washer & dryers). Lastly, the location is excellent-- I can walk along the boardwalk and be in Hoboken in just under 10 minutes.

It has a nice view, other than that, it?s a nightmare. Unresponsive staff who don?t give a damn. Greedy company that nickel and dimes you on top of an already high rate. Non stop noise from construction, dogs and the party boat that also uses our building (with no benefit to residents). Can?t wait to move out! -

My wife and I just moved here days ago from a building in the same zip code. We are extremely pleased with our decision. Buildings are beautiful and well maintained. Maintenance responded immediately to repair minor issue. Building is very dog friendly. Gym is best I’ve come across . Building is steps from ferry into NYC . Overall this is truly a great value for the monthly rent. Special shout out to Colleen for her help in getting us situated. We really appreciate it!

We (family 2+1) simply love Estuary!
The area surrounding rental buildings looks very European like, which helped us to quickly adjust after a big move.
Alana Fox is very helpful, always eager to help manager, even though some of the things are beyond her responsibilities. She helped us very quickly to find perfect apartment and assist with all formalities. Every time whenever we meet she greets us kindly and ask if we need anything.
Receptionists - Sasha, Matty and Tricia always welcome us with big smiles and are always super helpful. They are the reason Estuary blooms. They know us well and became to us like a family. We feel here like at home. Amenities are great, although the children’s room could be renovated a bit.
Whenever there would be some issue in the apartment the maintenance team is showing up very quickly and giving as helpful hand - special thanks to Mario!
There are many events organised by leasing agency - for singles, families, yoga fans, children activities and pet lovers.
And the view to Hudson Yards is breathtaking!

In the beginning they will be nice so you will get lured in and leave a great review. Trust me it turns sour. Incessant fire alarms. Uninhabitable days of no running water and ignored emails for help when I was sick and had no water or AC during a heatwave. They sent tenants to shower in a public space during Covid. They refused to get me in touch with upper management. They unethically changed their methods for the monthly water bills. They installed a toxic air refreshener in the vents that assaults you wherever you go, even in your own apt which is supposed to be your safe haven and instead makes you sick. They illegally entered my apt. Need I say more? Yes, the view is beautiful but at what cost?

I've been here for two years now.
It's nice and a safe place to live.
The apartment is roomy and you have everything you need in your unit. The units are very well insulated for sound. The common areas are kept very clean.
The management seems to try hard to accommodate everyone, which isn't easy!
After 2 years, I still enjoy living here.

I’ve loved living here for over 2 years. The staff and amenities are great. The location is another plus, one bus or ferry stop to NYC or just a short walk to Hoboken.

The concierge staff has been helpful, management office has always been responsive (I’ve interacted mostly with Nicole and Colleen), and maintenance has been very efficient sometimes even showing up to my apartment within a few hours of my request submission.

Although I won’t be staying here for another year I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the property to others. It does come with a price but it does deliver on experience.

I have been living at Hamilton Cove for the past three years, and I gotta say that I love everything about it. The location is ideal for both my husband and I since we commute still to New York City for work the ferry is two minutes away. You have the bus stop just one stop away from Lincoln Tunnel to Port Authority. I feel the safest at Hamilton Cove or the area you could go out at night walk around no worries . The amenities in the buildings by far is amazing my favorite is the gigantic pool that we have. They also have a great kiddy pool. The one person that I must give a shout out to is Colleen !! w She’s been in the building from the very beginning since we moved in until now. Colleen is always helpful with anything that we need or request for. She is amazing and very friendly, our son, Carter loves her, especially when she host the cute fun kids activity parties, in the building. She’s definitely your go to person at Hamilton Cove if you ever need anything.

My boyfriend and I have been living at Estuary Apartments for a little over 6 months now. I cannot recommend it enough. Aside from the gorgeous views, great amenities, and spacious apartments, the staff really take it upon themselves to go above and beyond for you. Sasha our services coordinator is absolutely wonderful, she knew my name and my apartment number the second time I came down to get a package. She is also incredibly positive and supportive if you need anything! Wanted to also callout Matty who has been so welcoming and helpful. The staff also plan a monthly calendar of happenings and activities which is so appreciated! It's nice to be in a community and it enables residences to get out of their apartments, especially if you work from home. I really appreciate the time the staff takes to give everyone who lives here the best experience possible!

My husband and I have lived at the Estuary for over 7 years. We cannot speak highly enough about the incredible maintenance and front desk staff. They are always extremely helpful, kind, and prompt. Whenever we submit a maintenance request, they always come within a few hours and have a solution for everything. The front desk staff go the extra mile, especially Sasha Hernandez, and it does not go unnoticed. We are very grateful for all that they do.

To state the obvious, the amenities are amazing & the views of NYC skyline are breathtaking but the cherry on the cake is the staff. Every single person cares about everyone who resides here. When we 1st moved here, I met Sasha & until this day- she is our go to person. She is brilliant at what she does. You can see the passion & the flair she brings & how genuinely she cares about getting things done by keeping the residents in mind. And another talented & fantastic addition to the team is Matty. It is not easy being the face & 1st point of contact for everyone who walks into the door. But Sasha & Matty do it with such ease & elegance.
I have seen many a staff come & go or do their work just because they have to. But these two are a powerhouse. Estuary has definitely chosen well in terms of its staff. We feel well taken care of. Thanks!

I visited the leasing office today at Estuary Living and had a great experience speaking with Alana. I was so happy that I had a chance to speak with Alana to complete this tasks that means so much to me!

Recently, spoke with Shaquana always a pleasure to speak with her. She's always willing and patient to hear what you have to say and create solutions. 🙂 Thank you So Much

Maintenance crew is incredible ... i saw Gio and spoke to him about an issue and came right to my apartment and fixed it. He always Goes above and beyond!
John in leasing office has been excellent in assisting me with weekend requests including Apartments rental stays for visiting Families. Andro has been very helpful too!!

The Estuary is more than just an apartment complex—it is an amazing community, and its standout feature is the exceptional front desk concierge staff led by Sasha. Sasha always goes above and beyond to provide remarkable service. Her unwavering dedication and willingness to assist with anything and everything is truly impressive. I find great comfort in knowing that I can always depend on her, including in unexpected situations such as fire drills, when my dog (who happens to be the unofficial mayor of the Estuary!) needs rescuing. In addition, I want to give well-deserved recognition to Trish and Matty, who play a crucial role in making this community truly special. They consistently deliver helpful and welcoming service to residents, making their presence invaluable. Their proactive and responsive nature has significantly enhanced the overall positive living experience here. Plus Chewy absolutely loves visiting the front desk (and he claims it has nothing to do with the cookies!)

The maintenance team also deserve high praise for their outstanding service. They consistently demonstrate professionalism and efficiency by promptly addressing all maintenance requests and their friendly demeanor adds to the positive experience of interacting with them.

I recently had a tour of the property at the Estuary. The complex over exceeded my expectations. The views were outstanding and the property itself was clean, modern and had great additional amenities. The floor plans that were available were spacious and unique. Each layout had a lovely view and appealed to my liking. if your going to schedule a tour, I highly recommend Alana! She was friendly, professional and really took the time to answer all my questions.

Apparently the management is okay with residents leaving trashes or shoes or whatever outside like this. This is not a one-time occurrence. It's pretty much EVERY DAY.

This same unit is taking shopping carts back from Whole Foods. They left it by the elevator (even blocked the elevator once) or outside their unit OVERNIGHT.

Update: changed from 1 star to 3 given the proactive response from the management. I will keep updating.

Update: haven't seen this happen for another 2 weeks. Changed from 3 stars to 4.

My car got stolen from the valet downstairs. Kara, building manager, said she’d make sure there’s all new valet staff and a change in security…one year later the same people are still working the valet and nothing has been done to improve security. Maintenance to the Hudson calls for a huge crane that gets parked on the side of the building, literally inches away from your patio/terrace and completely blocking the view of the Hudson and Manhattan. Also, I went days without running water, AC/electricity. I didn’t get compensation for any of this.

Really great staff. The front desk couldn't be more helpful. The office staff are very efficient and kind. I don't know what people are talking about with the negative reviews.

In all my years in NYC an NJ, this is the best apartment I have ever found. The location cannot be beat and the area is just lovely.

Property management is extremely unprofessional and this building constantly has problems. The elevators are always having trouble. I've been getting leakage in my apartment from the balcony above me and noone has done anything to fix it.

Worst building management I have ever dealt with. Submitted an application for an apt in this building and didn’t hear from anyone for 2 weeks. Finally received a lease but we’re told by the manager Trevor (who we were never able to get a hold of) that there was a mistake and someone else got a lease as well.
Would not waste my time applying here unless you have a lot of patience.

Nice older apartment complex
Cons
The rooms do not have any overhead lights. Overhead lights are at the kitchen, entrance and bathrooms. The living rooms and bedrooms do not have overhead lights. The kitchen does not have a garbage disposal. The windows open partly and don't have screens. There is no central ac, each room has its own ac that has to be turned on or off individually. It does take management some time to get back to you, you have to keep calling and emailing for answers.

Pros
The location is awesome, they have ferries to the city 8 min walking away, light rail is 7 min away and the very last stop before the Lincoln tunnel by nj transit bus is 3 min walking away.
The pool has beautiful views and in the afternoon it's in partial shade. The gym is decent. And the front desk and maintenance guys are friendly and responsive. My windows blew open (and kind of fell out of the frame) and wouldn't shut during a storm and they came right away to fix the issue.

231whk located down the block from espera and embory lofts (209/203 respectively); is another overpriced apartment complex. This 60 unit apartment complex gives you the feel of nyc while being in (union city nj). Its generously overpriced apartments are slowly pushing people that grew up here out of the neighborhood, bringing in people that probably have their parents paying their rent. 2k for a studio seems absurd especially since the surrounding "regular " apartments charge 1400-1800 for a 1br. However maybe you're paying for the slightly elevated view of the thread (another luxury building) that suspicious has apartments that sold as low as 325k to as high as 700k. But I guess that's life for union city now

Love it here!! Everyones been fantastic beyond words, so I’m very grateful!:) Lots of great benefits here, aside from being a short commute to work in Manhattan. The apartment has a lot of great amenities, and they’re well-maintained. Reception staff are all very friendly and pay great attention to us, including knowing apartment we’re from prior to us telling us them. It’s very impressive and goes to show how attentive they are! Office staff are all very helpful, caring, and welcoming. They don’t make you feel intimidated to ask questions. Maintenance team responds quickly to repairs! Another great amenity is dry cleaning service, and Gerard from Harbor Cleaners was very professional and accommodating. I’m looking forward to renewing my lease!

Harbor 1500 is gorgeous place to live. I stayed there for two years. Great location to access to NYC, nice views for Manhattan, convenient to grocery shopping, most important is the best service and wonderful staff. I really enjoyed living there. If i come back to the area, Harbor 1500 will be my first choice.

Three months after moving out we have yet to receive our security deposit and building management send us a bill saying we owe THEM more than $1000. Previous reviewers have noted the sewage charge issues which we also experienced. After the building management promised to pay a balance and penalties left by the previous tenant, they are now demanding we pay that balance despite us trying for more than four years to resolve the issue and we moved out three months ago. We lived in our unit for two years before receiving a sewage bill that was still addressed to the previous tenants and included over $100 of penalty charges as management never updated the account. Management promised they would pay the balance and never did. Building management is completely unresponsive and cannot reply to even a simple email asking for confirmation that our names are no longer associated with the sewage account, 90 days after leaving the unit. We paid our rent automatically via direct deposit on the 1st of the month and never paid late, yet each month was charged a late fee in the resident's rental portal. Numerous calls and emails to building management were ignored on this issue for over a year and now again, 3 months after moving out we can't get a straight answer on the balance they say we owe. It's beyond frustrating and feels like a total scam. They ignored us while we were tenants and now that we have left the building they are trying to wear us down with horrible customer service in hopes we'll shell out more $$ to them for nothing. Not to mention the entire time we lived in our unit, the windows leaked constantly and we had to line the entire apartment with towels at the slightest hint of rain or snow. Years of requests went unheeded - management continued to say they would get the windows fixed by XX date, which of course never happened. We ultimately left the building due to the complete disregard for us as tenants and somehow are still stuck dealing with this ridiculous management issue. Wish I could give zero stars. Buyer beware.

I’ll start by saying the building and apartments are beautiful. Viewing the amenities and units is where the decent experience stopped. All the reviews about the incompetent, dishonest, and unresponsive management are 1000% true. We were put through a circus act of an application process. After initially applying following our visit, we had to track down management for a status, were told multiple times we would receive a call back that never came, then two weeks later were told we need a co signer for the lease even though I’ve never once in my life needed one. We found a co-signer within the hour of being informed we needed one and paid the additional application fees after being promised we would be approved quickly thereafter. Another week later and after more unreturned phone calls we learned that our applications were still denied with no valid reason, despite the fact that we provided EVERYTHING management asked in a timely manner and were promised we’d be ready to move in by May 1st. We wasted weeks of our time and more money on application fees than needed dealing with this place. Save your time and money and apply to any of the number of other reputable complexes in the area. Great building, cool amenities, great location, but absolutely not worth dealing with dishonest, lazy, unresponsive management.

Absolutely incredible experience with the Gateway - what a hidden gem! Crazy convenient location. Building and amenities are off the chart. Management team is responsive, caring, and transparent. Building manager goes above and beyond to make sure tenants are happy and feel at home. Maintenance issues are addressed immediately. Free BBQ every Saturday, Christmas party, Superbowl party, etc. When my fiance and I got engaged, the building manager went out of his way to reserve a table for our family on the pool deck, AND picked up special food for us. When our close friends were leaving the country, the building manager arranged for us to have a private event in the lounge. Unreal! I highly recommend the Gateway to anyone!

Horrible Management! Do NOT move in here. The apartments are beautiful, great ammeneties, but when you are treated disrespectfully by management, making you feel like you live in a dorm, is not worth your time and money. On top of that they will try to charge you for any little thing when you move out. We were charged half of our security deposit which was more than half of what we paid originally to move in 6k!!!, they also made us move 4 days before the end of the month which was paid ENTIRELY for!
Beware when singing contract about bogus sentences that will cost you atthe end of your contract $$$$.

I'm a tenant in this building and the management is awful. They do not treat the tenants right and continue to harass them even when they are in the process of moving out. I've seen another tenant being treated poorly twice - the management and front desk are rude and disrespectful. The manager lives in the building but does not attend to requests sent through by the tenants. I would recommend against living here if you can find another option. Although the owner is a wonderful, friendly man - the management team is really destroying the reputation of the building.
