    Great living at Sky - "Why live on the ground when you can live in The Sky !!" Great views, property is always well kept, well maintained ( as well as the common areas ). Noise is not bad, although once in awhile the huge Cruise Ships blow a loud horn to let other vessels know they are pulling out. Not to mention 'Sunac ' is right across the street for quality groceries and hot foods.

    The SKY building and all its staff is the way a building should run and be maintained

    Just moved into the building this month. All staff from management to super to concierge seem wonderful. Was a little disappointed to have to pay an amenity fee after being told that the building did not have an amenity fee. When we applied for the apartment there was not amenity fee associated with the apartment and we feel that should have been grandfathered in. Other than this issue everything seems to be good.

    The building was exactly what we hoped it would be. The staff is friendly and attentive, the maintenance team is incredibly responsive, and we love the location. Thanks for helping us secure such a great apartment

    I have lived at 568 Union Avenue for 6 months now, and can definitively say that it is the best apartment I've ever rented. The building is in a convenient yet quiet location, has fantastic amenities, and a friendly staff. My apartment has modern finishes and is very well maintained by the maintenance team. I highly recommend living here.
