Super on the morning shift REALLY impolite + treating other staff with anger and harassing people. So rude that I don’t feel comfortable not even entering that building anymore. Please do something about it before someone calls the police on him for harassment.
I’ve lived in 4 different plcs in nyc and this building has been the best, by far. Moved in during covid and stayed for 2 years. Wish I could stay more but rent did increase. The staff is lovely, really made me feel like home. The building and amenities are always clean. Maintenance requests always done so well and on time. You can tell the management really cares for their tenants. I recommend this place to everyone.
Very torn about this rating, so I want to be clear that everything about the amenities, staff, maintenance responsiveness, lobby design, doormen, sound/noise isolation, package delivery, etc. pretty much EVERYTHING is amazing about this building. I paid around $5K for a 700-ish sq ft one bedroom apartment, which is quite steep, but you get in-unit laundry and I loved the location - it is a 2 minute walk from the L/F/M and 1/2/3, so very convenient.
The reason why I am giving such a subpar rating is not because they tried to raise my rent at the height of the pandemic (lol) but primarily because of the constant/reoccurring pest infestations. Although they have an exterminator stop by every week and they really did try their best, I was told that because 101W15 is located on top of a subway stop, that all the rats/mice/cockroaches have a straight shot up to the building. For the years I lived there, I dealt with frequent visits from water bugs (which look like massive cockroaches and are terrifying. I won't attach any photos, you get the idea) and mice/rats. It got to the point where the exterminator was visiting my apartment regularly, I had all my pantry food (cereal, bananas, sealed granola bars, rice, etc.) either crammed in the fridge or stored in ziplock bags that were then put into tupperware containers, and I didn't dare put out any water for my dog and only gave him water with his meals. Even then, new waterbugs would consistently pop up and scurry around the apartment and the mice would chew through the tupperware and leave poop droppings everywhere. I do consider myself a very clean person (to the point of being a bit OCD), so this was a very challenging experience for me and I considered breaking lease many times.
I know that this was an experience that many of my fellow tenants had, but not everyone, so if you end up choosing this building, you either need to be comfortable with dealing with huge cockroaches + mice or have enough good luck where you end up in a unit that has fewer mice holes/cracks in the walls. For me, I just couldn't justify paying $5K to feel perpetually anxious/unsafe in my own space, and sadly had to move elsewhere.

101 West 15th street is so far the best living experience I've had in the city! The location is perfect and the building is amazing. Everyone in the building makes it a great experience and living here comes with so many perks. I love it here!
Great building and management staff. Any maintenance issues are addressed within a day or two (David and Ron are great). Building is clean. Common area is comfortable and never crowded. Neighbors are pretty quiet and respectful, in fact, I have no idea who my neighbors are, I almost never see anyone on my floor. Apartments are also sound proof as outside noise is reduced.
Anya, their assistant property manager, is amazing. I went away for a few days and was not sure if I left enough water for my cat, so I asked Anya to check up on it, which she did, and my trip was worry free. I’d recommend this building to anyone.

Moving day can be stressful, but Stonehenge made it easy and comfortable. The staff was helpful, knew us by name right away, and helped with some small repairs in the apartment to make it perfect for us. Love living here so far!
I did a photo shoot in this building and it looks amazing. Very quite, even though, when you step outside, you are in the heart of the city. Also, the bottom floor is huge and looks like a great place to come to work, read or relax. Staff was very friendly when I was there. Overall looks like a great place to live in the city.
Nice apartment complex with grand entrance, 24/7 doorman, a nice gym and a huge court yard. Very clean and a brand new feel. Not sure if the bbq is allowed there, but I visited the courtyard for a picnic and thought it was a very nice and quiet space, away from the busy traffic. You can, however, bring your own music and there - there's even room for a band!
