This is the WORST building ever. I moved in my apt and it was COMPLETLY INFESTED - I mean roaches walking on my coach, chairs, tables!! Not only did they promise to move me and then ended up having me stuck there 2 years now they are suing me for rent - having me develop PTSD from living in roaches! I had no use of my kitchen for 2 years - I stopped buying furniture and what I got I didnt build. THIS WAS A LIVING HELL and now they took my things to storage with the judged permission! This is INSANE! DO NOT MOVE HERE. They a... read more

Another update for y'all: My building's management is yet again trying to throw us out again -- for the tenth time. Yes, that's right, tenth time. So check this out: The entire complex has long had an issue with pigeons roosting on terraces. It's so bad, that one time, we had our terrace professionally cleaned and about 45 minutes later, the pigeons were back fouling up our terrace. Lefrak has never done anything to prevent it or even lessen it. We've asked management in person and through email to enclose the terrace, as ... read more

Even for many New Yorkers, LeFrak City is often referred to as its own neighborhood. (#1). Technically it's still Corona, while bordering Elmhurst, and is a really a mega apartment development that turns 60 this year. It was founded by and named after Samuel J LeFrak, a real estate tycoon. Today, it's synonymous as one of the largest apartment developments in NYC and is known as one of the more rougher parts of the borough. Despite its non-neighborhood status, these apartments are home to practically an entire city of peopl... read more

Zero stars is not an option. Live a little better than living on the streets should be the slogan. Second year having to wade through sewage water to get to my car parked in poorly maintained garage. I guess I'm lucky that I discovered the citizen app that notified me about flooding that was happening so I was able move my car before the water enter my engine, like it did last year resulting in a total loss. Tips for living a little better in Lefrak...get an app that sends emergency notifications because ABSOLUTELY no one ... read more

Updating my review. Would give it no stars if possible. I am not joking when I say that it will soon be two years that our balcony has been "under construction". They made all of the tenants remove their balcony furniture, construction was done for about two months and then they never came back. Those balcony rails have been left leaning against our wall under the window for almost TWO years now. The job was just left unfinished. I reached out to the tenants association in regards to a rent reduction since we're paying for a... read more

I've lived in Lefrak City for a long time, and on the more recent side the quality has worsened. Neighbors continuously blast their music without consequence, security is never strict, being that they're contracted, smoking within the stairwells, elevators being taken out of service during Rush Hour, the list never ends. This place needs to increase strictness and security on the tenants. There is no excuse for the firecrackers, the yelling and banging in the hallways, and especially the LOUD obnoxious music being played. I... read more

I would not recommend anyone move into Lefrak City. I am so sorry I ever rented an apartment in the Sydney building in September 2020. I lived there for 14 months and in June of 2021, my apartment was burglarized. I reached out to the management office and never received a response. I filed a police report and there's footage of this person entering my apartment without my permission. I'm still not convinced it wasn't an inside job. The detective told me that Lefrak's security department was notified of the burglary but I ne... read more
