Resident of Eleven80 for 18 months.

The quality of the units is great. Historic art deco building, the 2nd tallest building in Newark, and - as a former office building - the ceiling heights are great (~15 feet). Location is wonderful. Right next to Military Park, NJPAC, and Prudential Center. Compared to anything east, the price is a fraction less but on the uppermost end of what you'll find in Newark. I live car free with 2 train stations within walking distance and dozens more bus routes, allowing me to easily get anywhere in Newark and move in any cardinal direction for cheap. The Military Park light rail station is directly below the building with 3-5 minute intervals during rush hour, taking you quickly to Branch Brook Park and Newark Penn Station.

The amenities are also very good and are a mandatory $25 / person / month fee. Full gym, locker room, saunas, lounge with pool table bar TV and poker table, game room, (rarely working) bowling alley, and quarter-court basketball court

If you start seriously looking, they charge $10 / floor, so you can save $$ living on the 5th vs $25 floor.

Can you please explain your last sentence? Is $10/floor the charge for Amenities?
Also, thank you very much for your detailed review

Units in Eleven80 are well soundproofed if you care about that.

The $10 / floor is added to your rent. So being on the 25th floor, you pay $200/month more than the same unit on the 5th floor.

Out of curiosity, do they allow members of the public onto the terraces or outdoor spaces? I'm a hobby photographer shooting Newark and would love to get some photos of and from Eleven80.

There are no common outdoor spaces...so you'd have to find one of the few renters with a terrace.

I lived in 1180 for 3 years...I think many transplants start there before they get to know the city better. It's a great building, with a great staff and close to all downtown amenities plus arena and NJPAC districts and train....its woefully overpriced imo with no rent control. Walker House is a gorgeous building as well. I've only been inside one person's apartment. It was a tad small and seemed similar to 1180. But very nice and again, nice amenities. Close to NJPAC and Halsey but considerably farther from the Arena district.

I live in 1180 and I'm paying $50/month for amenities. You're paying $25? What's up with that?!?!?!?

$25/month/person. So we pay 50 for 2 of us.

The reviews of the last 3 are about poor sound insulation and/or terrible neighbors due to them living in the affordable housing units, and noise from outdoor concerts near NJPAC(Theatre Square). You could be better off if you're on a higher floor in the latter 3 but if you can land Eleven80 instead, do it.
