I have lived in The Union Building (TUB) aka Clinton Street Lofts for over 4 years and it's going…read moreto be difficult to leave for many reasons including all the new development around and the building manager Denice. Over the years Denice has been very flexible allowing me to redo our bathroom and more recently she has replaced our carpets and made sure our dishwasher was fixed. When I think about moving below are reasons that keep me at The Union Building. LIVING - The building is pretty quiet and everyone really stays to them self. Typically there is someone at the front desk from 7pm to 7am, but the cameras are rolling all day and the building manager, Denice checks them all the time. At times, it can be a bit difficult to get in contact with Denice, because she manages a handful of other properties in North Jersey but, if you email her she responds immediately and does her best to ensure your needs are addressed in a timely manner. Also, you can typically find her in the office from 9am-5pm located in the basement past the laundry room, gym and 1920's style boiler! LOCATION - Located in the heart of downtown Newark, there's no need for a car. If you do have a car, TUB is less than 5 minutes from the major highways like the garden state parkway, njturnpike, routes 1&9 and 78. Although, there is no parking on the street, there are a few parking lots around that offer decent monthly rates compared to Hoboken, Jersey City and NY. Within a two block walking radius there's Seton Hall Law, Rutgers School of Business, all the Prudential buildings including the Center where NJ Devil's play, New Jersey Performing Arts Center, the newly developed Military Park, booming bars and restaurants i.e. Dinosaur BBQ, LOFT 47, Chipotle, among many other delicious places; and most importantly for those without a car, Newark Penn Station. Homeless, deranged folk aside Newark Penn Station is a major hub for all forms of public transportation; PATH, NJ TRANSIT train and bus, AMTRAK, Greyhound, and my favorite Bolt Bus are all a 7 minute walk away. From the bustling station, Midtown Manhattan is less than 25 mins away on PATH or NJ Transit and the Amtrak Acela reaches DC in less than 3 hours. If you need to go to the airport the go28 around the corner from TUB on Broad and Market Street gets you to any terminal in about 15 minutes for $1.50 !!!! Which brings me to my next point.... AFFORDABLE - Compared to most other properties in the area, TUB are the most affordable per sq. ft and also offer the most square footage around that I've seen. now I'm estimating but, one bedrooms are as small 600 sq ft and the largest 2 bedroom is 1100sq ft. and I believe the apartments range from $1100 to $1900 - opposed to other building nearby that charge almost twice that for half the space. ARCHITECTURE- A Pre-War building so the exterior and common area details and quality are always a pleasant conversation starter for guests who are partial to Newark. If Clinton Street Loft's had a roof top deck, washer dryer in apartments, and took better care of the outside structure you would be looking at 5 stars, but since the rooftop is covered in solar panels, I lug my laundry to the basement and our windows haven't been washed ever- I felt 3 stars was "A-OK".

Amazing location. Amazing management and maintenance. Jessica and Ray are an awesome building team…read more Love that Duke's is in the lobby.

Pasting my Google review here. The power has gone off at least 5 times after my last edit on 9/20,…read moreand it was usually without notice. I am not angry or disgruntled - the gaslighting, secrecy, and lack of accountability just needs to stop. EDIT 9/20: Electric went out with less than 1.5 h notice during the middle of the work day on 9/13. Water went out again today/has been brown. Top floors are on generators and smell. They are still touring apts. We are expected to pay rent and be positive. If you do not smile through every situation you are targeted by management + front desk. This place runs off toxic positivity. Shoutout to Aliou for being the only kind person through all of this, and not allowing valid concerns to affect his ability to execute and welcome all - he is the BEST. Shoutout to the sanitation staff too. They have employees reading reviews and targeting us with horrid middle school attitudes when we're only speaking on management. I would not be going so hard for a company riddled with incompetence, but that's just me. EDIT 9/12: Tenzin and Sarah are Urby employees, check their other reviews. Do with that what you will. They also do not live on affected floors. This was not a city-wide outage. Kinjo has now closed due to the outage (restaurant downstairs) and was a beacon of light for the community. Management has not officially communicated that to us and are shutting our power off again for repairs so we have to transfer our food downstairs. They also are not allowing early lease breaking. We're trapped. OG REVIEW: I've lived at Newark Urby for nearly a year (on a 15-month lease), and while things may appear great, you don't want to be here during a crisis. Urby pushes residents for reviews as soon as they move in, but here's what you need to know about longer-term experiences. First, we chose Newark Urby for its "luxury" living and amenities. One incident involved a fire caused by something flammable being thrown down the chute. As alarms blared, no one provided any real-time updates. It wasn't until hours later, after the fire was controlled, that communication came, despite residents having family and pets at risk. Second, during a storm, the building suffered major damage. The basement flooded, elevators broke, and power/water were cut off. Residents were left to gather details by eavesdropping as management failed to provide clear communication. The next day, the building sent a delayed notice about the elevators, long after they were back up. Meanwhile, food spoiled, people couldn't bathe, and communication from management was scattered. Urby's solution? Ordering pizza after 20 hours, offering to refrigerate food long after it had gone bad, and providing minimal relief while enforcing access policies in common spaces, leaving residents with limited options to charge devices or work. Five days later, water returned, but our unit is still experiencing issues, and the building now reeks, with trash chutes, grills, and the gym's AC non-operational. I spoke with the new property manager, Lucie Liskova, who promised a $150 credit per person for lost groceries (not reflected on the rent statement) and help finding a temporary placement at Harrison Urby. However, when I followed up, she said they were prioritizing families and pets. Despite mentioning I have a pet, she made a dismissive comment, "Don't turtles like the heat?" My turtle's water is normally 78°F, but it's been much hotter, causing stress. After many calls and much pushback, we were temporarily placed at another Urby while other affected residents went out-of-pocket on hotels + pet boarding. Lucie also mentioned that due to the situation, the late fee on rent would be waived this month. However, on 9/6, tenants were still charged the $100 late fee. Lastly, a friend who used to live here was targeted by another resident with a sexual criminal history. Management's response was to ask if he should be evicted and she did not feel comfortable making that determination as he lived with family, even after he followed her home while intoxicated. Rather than taking appropriate action, they begged her to stay, leading her to move out. This place might seem nice on the surface, but the new management's response during crises is disappointing. Consider this before moving in.

The price point is super affordable. I would like to note that the parking fee is hefty. They have a few spots near the building, uncovered and then the rest of the spots are in a parking garage like down the block. I would've chose this apartment complex to live in, if it wasn't for the parking situation. It's in the safest part of Newark (near all the colleges and government buildings) but this is still Newark and I want my property to be safe.

This place both literally and figuratively stinks. As if the air quality in the town of Harrison…read morewasn't stifling enough, you walk into the apartment building seeking shelter from the repulsiveness only to get smacked in the nostrils by the stench of people cooking with their doors open. That's actually a violation in the lease agreement but management doesn't seem to give a crap about rules. Here are a pile of other gems off the top of my head: - Random fire alarms in the middle of the night. I've been stuck outside so many times in freezing temperatures in pajamas for negative alarms that I've actually established a routine for this: Get in my air-conditioned car and drive off to wait it out. I felt so clever doing it only to realize that wait, I shouldn't even have to do this at 3 in the morning. - Dumbasses who don't know how to turn off car alarms. I recall one especially terrible weekend where there was a busted-up vehicle that had its alarm going off every 15 minutes. 48+ straight hours in an apartment facing the open parking deck with an alarm blazing. I'd call it a nightmare but there was no sleep during that entire time. - By the way, pick your poison: Choose an apartment facing the parking deck with people revving their annoying Tokyo-drift vehicles in the middle of the night and people playing that corny, loud-ass game with throwing that 10-pound ball on the ground OR an apartment facing the pool where unauthorized guests scream all day and night throughout the summer months. I can't imagine the outward facing rooms being much better - The Con-Ed gates beep annoyingly throughout the day. - People leaving their patio doors open with their loud-ass dogs barking at everything they see - Poorly insulated walls/ceilings/windows: Neighbors generally don't give a shit about how loudly they play their music, even at night. As for ceiling insulation, I don't know what's worse: the sound of kids running all day or some drunk stumbling into the apartment while wearing heels. Remember, this is also really close to EWR - you're gonna hear airplanes ALL day EVERY day. - Crap parking deck security. In the years I've lived there, my parked car has been hit by someone who doesn't deserve a license and on a separate occasion had the roof vandalized. I've also had two bicycles TIED UP in the garage and were still stolen. The security cameras were useless and management just shrugged it off - Why the hell am I paying a premium for the parking deck then? - The trash chute system is a joke. For those who are environmentally conscious, pressing the recycling button doesn't do anything - everything goes in the trash. I'm deeply regretful that I lived there for years with an entire community that doesn't have the means to recycle. - Other crap that I won't get into since it's giving me a headache just thinking about them: Stolen mail (federal offense that management won't even help you out with), street shutdowns during events at Red Bull, flooding in the area, slow garage doors (Steel Works across the street takes 2 seconds to open, why does this one take 15?!!) Don't fall for the glamor of being next to a station that goes to NYC. I remember about a decade ago when maybe 1 or 2 people would get on the train at the Harrison Station. I left the area last year and often had to wait for less-packed trains to pass before I could get on one. It's gonna get worse: New buildings are sprouting in the area and over a dozen new high-rises have been approved for construction at Grove Street. It'll be near impossible to get on a train. Tip: Look forward to owning a house

The events have dwindled down to club activities. 250 per car per month is just absurd. Had multiple car thefts while living there and they installed a gate that never closes cause they also provide public parking for the Redbulls games. The street will mess up the alignment on your car and the amenity fee is 99 per person per month. Our 400 sq apartment just was not worth the 2900 rent. Love the look of this place though

But no matter how beautiful the environment seems at first, their condescending, incompetent, irresponsible, back-stabbing management team will definitely leave a bad taste in your mouth. After being tormented by noise from upstair neighbor for a month, trying to get management to do something and failed, I finally make a angry phone call, that get myself the honor to talk to his royal highness, J. While he could have at least apologize for their incompetence, he chose to start the call with chastiing me about not being nice enough to the team. :) The angry phone call was definitely angry, I will admit it. But keeping my voice at a normal volumne, and using some not-so polite-adjetive to describe the noise is the most calm I can be. After a month of anxiety, of trying to get help but can't, and of being dismissed every time you tried to get their attention, normal person would be screaming and cursing them out. After the call with J, I got an empty promise that they will start to look into the issue (after thay have found out about it for a month), and that follow up email will come immediately after. It is currently seven hours after the call, I still have not receive anything. Upstair neighbor still making noise. I feel disgusted whenever I think about the conversation with J, and feel desperate that I will need to pay at least $2400 just to break lease and get some peace and quite. So, please, if you are considering this place, DON'T. Your problems will not be addressed, they won't apologize for their mistakes. They will lie to your face to avoid trouble, and you will need to pay them GOOD MONEY just to get out of dodge. RUN!

Starting at the top -- Daniel was always reachable, and always willing to help where he could. We stayed there three-years, and only had to move away because of my job took me back to California. At the time, being in law school, money was tight, and Daniel helped us out with parking, and when we moved out, we got back our full refund (this is after the apartment had two kids under four running around). The only thing we got charged for was a cleaning fee for the carpets, which was fair. Re maintenance staff, this seems to be consistent --- amazing people. My family, and kids, loved Oscar. He was personable, and willing to help with the smallest things. The one thing, if I had to grade down a bit, was the turnaround times were not always great, but part of that was also us having kids, and trying to work around their nap schedule. The amenities are good. Gym was sufficient (had all the equipment you needed), but it can get a bit crowded as the space isn't that big. Rooftop is amazing. The views of NYC are breathtaking. The community room was also very large, stocked with boardgames and it's own TV with a good seating area, and large table in the back where my friends and I occasionally used studying for finals. There are some cons, but again, it really goes back to Daniel, and how quickly he would deal with any complaints (very quickly). We did some instances where we had some weed smoke, and found some cigarettes in the trash area, but once Dan was notified, an apartment wide email went out. Another sort of downer was that the retail space below was never filled, so you had to go away from the building for the smallest things. Location is hit/or miss. It's walking distance to Whole Foods, and a five minute drive to Target. Nothing is more than a 10-15 minute drive away. Regarding the homeless people: around the building itself, you hardly see any, but of course, it being Newark, you will see them around the park area, but if that's the standard, you're not going to find any apartment complex without that issue. Additionally, you can walk to Penn Station, and be in NY in 10-15min. It's also walkable to Rutgers and Seton Hall Law School. There is also the Prudential Center which is about a 10-15min walk. You're also right next the NJ Performing Arts Center. Apartments are nice, modern, floor to ceiling windows. We were the first tenants in our apartment. I will say the rent did climb pretty quickly once we were there, but I think when taking in the full-three years we were there, we got a pretty good deal (relative to the other comps in the area). If you get a corner apartment, you can't beat the views. We are on the river, and the view of NY always impressed our guests haha. If we do move back to Newark, gladly be back there.

The reason I gave it 3 stars is because the management is not very responsive to emails or calls. When attempting to sign out lease Jenny from across the street had to direct me to the building manager Tiffany after Karina, the leasing manager, was unresponsive. When we went to tour the facility we waited 30 min past our appointment time to be seen. If you're ok with having to chase down management for answers to a problem or question you'll do fine here. The construction looks really cheap. In the hallways, you can see the touch up strokes of paint on each floor. The lobby has a funny smell. The hardwood floors are cheap. Don't get too much water on them or they will start to raise. The showers are nice a spacious but have the drain off to the side and makes it hard to clean or drain water when showering. The gym and pool are the only amenities and the gym is across the street at their sister building. When submitting a maintenance request they take FOREVER to come fix the issue unless you continue to press them about it. I moved from the West Coast for a short term living situation so I don't mind it. Also, it's a 0.2 miles walk from my doorstep to the train station, which I use to commute into the city for work everyday. The parking sucks, and if you don't want to deal with it you either pay $90 for outdoor parking which is full so there's a waiting list or $200 for indoor parking. Trying to park around the building during the day is only 2 hrs at a time until after 6pm Monday - Friday and during Red Bull games. The apartments are very open concept, spacious & have great natural light. A tip, if you still decide to look here make sure not to get a unit in any corners of the facility or else you will not have a window in the bedroom of your unit. (My unit is one of those) I will say, if you are looking for great management & amazing amenities check out The Urby. It's in the same parking lot as 330, however their living spaces are not as open concept as 330, but living there is the closest thing to a paradise.

The units have carpet and tile flooring; there's no in-unit washer/dryer or dishwasher. One plus is the city view, which is a nice bonus. Building has a waitlist, from what I hear 1/2 bedroom units can be very hard to come by, but studios do become available.

When I complained about this to management, instead of thinking of an improvement or solution, the manager Jawana said "That is a courtesy that we can stop for you."

I moved out 40 days ago and still have not received my housing deposit because their "system to cut checks is down." The legal limit in New Jersey to return a security deposit is 30 days.
