The Octagon has a lot to offer in terms of location and atmosphere, but my experience has been impacted by a roach infestation that started from day one. Despite multiple treatments, the issue has persisted, which has made it difficult to feel fully comfortable at home. I hope to see more effective and lasting solutions implemented.

I recently moved into The Octagon, and it truly feels like a dream come true. Just 4 minutes from the Upper East Side, yet it feels miles away from the chaos and downsides of Manhattan — this island is a real hidden paradise. The commute is surprisingly easy and flexible, thanks to the private shuttle, bus, F train, tram, and ferry.

From my very first visit, I felt at home. The leasing team is fantastic — helpful, supportive, and patient — and every staff member is professional, warm, and...
welcoming. The building is always spotless, well maintained, and the common areas and outdoor spaces are beautifully manicured.

I love the sense of safety and tranquility here; my kids can roam freely without worry, and even the subway feels clean and comfortable. The views are breathtaking, and living here truly feels like a blessing. The Octagon is everything I always dreamed of but never found in Manhattan — relaxing, safe, and full of warmth.

Octagon is an amazing oasis just apart from Manhattan island. It is like Manhattan light with easy access to everything the city has to offer combined with a sanctuary away from the chaos of the city. Best kept secret in NYC.

I have been living at The Octagon since October of 2020 and each day here is a blessing. This cozy complex nestled in the northern section of Roosevelt Island is a true gem. Staff here are excellent and take wonderful care of the residents. The featured amenities are difficult to beat in comparison to other buildings on the island. The backyard is a fantastic place to relax in the warmer months and during the cold winters, the lounges provide ample space to work and convene. Parking and laundry... are all provided in building. Ample green space and tennis courts are both within reach of the building. If the Island is your vibe, then Octagon should be your first choice!
