The Lightwell

Does anyone live at the Lightwell and can comment on what living at the building or in the neighborhood is like? My husband and I are moving for work soon, and just submitted an application. We've toured a few other neighborhoods and buildings in Brooklyn, but keep coming back to this one. Our unit would be on the Front street side, I believe.

For reference - he'll be working in SoHo and I'll be working in Midtown. It doesn't seem like the commute will be terrible(?)

We aren't too worried about a lot of tourists around (I used to live in Midtown so I'm used to the overstimulation) but safety is a priority. We also aren't too picky about having a lot of good local dining options, as we like to cook. We do like to have access to good grocery stores, coffee/matcha spots, and gyms.
