Had to google this place...only found their FB page which had some pretty terrible looking food...which I think they posted themselves...

Anyone know what was going on? Ton of cop cars, saw some people getting arrested. There was also JCPD ESU which made it seem like it was something pretty big going down. Police photographer was out, seemed like he was snapping pics to document it for media.

I was expecting to see Saffron on your list but not as a least favorite! I bought here and moved in last November and have been very happy here. I didn't look at your top 3 listings because on price point you can't compare them...I was looking for a 2 bed in the low $400s with low maintenance. I just think you can't really make the comparison...I think 2 bed's in those waterfront condo's was $600k+ along with maintenance in the range of $6-800/month

To me, Saffron is new (garbage chute, i can see that, lucky i live on ground floor) and although it lacks luxurious finishes, it's clean, modern with nice 10ft ceilings. So I've been a happy camper here. Easy commute for me to Financial district as well.

I came from 2 years of living in the city around Union Square as well as Hell's Kitchen, couldn't be happier living in JC...it's nice to get away from the madness of the city, have a car and more space!
