360 State

I have lived here for 2.5 years. I moved to a new unit 3 months ago because i thought my mom would benefit from having a balcony to walk her/our dogs. The new unit has had issues since move in & they said they can fix it as long as we report it within 24h of move in. On our 1st day, the handle of the door to the balcony falls off. The maintenance comes a few days later, does a "quick fix" type job to just make it work. The handle continued to fall off daily and we had to use a screw driver to... hold it in place to continue using it. One day, I ran into another person fixing a similar door, so I asked him to take a look at what's wrong with our door. He said that he actually works for the manufacturer of the door and that the building maintenance did not do the correct type of fix. Now come January and the weather gets below freezing, my mom lets our dogs out for a walk at 6:30 am and she is in shorts and without a coat on and she gets LOCKED OUTSIDE IN BELOW FREEZING weather. Thankfully after a few minutes and three people struggling with the door handle, we somehow were able to unlock the door to let her in. We immediately report this issue ro maintenance as it says on all their elevators that "door lock" issues are an emergency. It's been 1 month now since the lockout and that door still does not open. 3 months total of door issues. I was also charged for more than $1000 "pet stains" when they were unable to fix a washer that kept on flooding the unit, just basically said live with it. Move to the newer buildings in New Haven, lots of newer ones that won't give you this headache. Read More

I was in a 2b/2b unit with another roommate, after the lease ended, while I was giving the keys, I emphasized that the check should be split between us. and the manager also said they will do that. they gave all of the deposit check to my roommate!! now my roommate is not responding, and neither the 360 irresponsible management! I lost all of my deposit because they don't care and they don't respond to anything.

360 is by far the best apartment building in New Haven. I have lived here for almost six years and it’s been perfect. The location is ideal. We are very close to the restaurants downtown and close to the Yale campus. State street station is across the street (to go to Hartford and Bradley airport) and Union station is a 10min walk away.
360 has a supermarket in the building and excellent and newly renovated amenities including a state of the art gym and a large terrace that’s perfect for walks... or to sit and enjoy the sunset in the evening. The management, leasing office, concierge and maintenance team are all incredibly helpful, friendly and professional. The building also offers free yoga classes and many other events for residents.

Living at 360 State Street in New Haven has been far and away the worst decision I have ever made in terms of living arrangements.

The building is unkempt. Every few days they take out the garbage and the entire first floor reeks of garbage. They overcharge for parking. The amenities are also very low quality and overpriced. The images on the website are not representative of what you are getting - everything is antiquated and they do nothing to repair or refurnish any of the common areas.

The... old management totally sabotaged every aspect of living at the property and the new owners overpaid, so management thought it would be reasonable to increase rent across the board for tenants by 30%. When I signed my lease, the old management team promised a one-time payment for amenities that would last until I left the building. The new management team decided to instead make this a new recurring monthly payment.

The area is disgusting and it is very unsafe to walk around the building. If you have a dog, do not walk it around the block because there is glass and needles all over the sidewalks. They also never change the "potty rocks" in the front of the building, so who knows what kind of parasites your dog will contract if you walk it there.

Seriously, do yourself a favor and check out any other apartment complex in New Haven. This place is a dump, no one lives here anymore, they can't attract anyone new, and their lack of revenue is being manifest in horrible living conditions. When I move out, I will be reporting them to the city. Read More

Don't rent here. The building was recently sold to a new owner, who paid $45 million over assessed value, and is trying to make tenants pay for it. In a report in the New Haven Independent, he said “Our rents are going to stay where they are,” Friedman said". HA! Only for tenants with current leases that they can't legally change. They are raising rents for current tenants who want to renew (some having lived here since 2010), by more than 30%, and for new leases by almost 50% more than what... they were two months ago. This company is from NY and is charging rates better suited for Manhattan. I've lived here for years and the apartments are fine, but NOWHERE NEAR worth the new prices. They're plaster boxes with bad insulation, IKEA cabinets, and plastic flooring. Many of the current tenants and staff are leaving. Do yourself a favor and look at the newer, nicer, and more reasonably priced buildings in the city. Stay far away from 360 State. Read More
