I will not re-sign... 3/5 stars
Former Tenant
Pros:
Maintenance requests were fixed promptly. Large bedrooms and big windows. 24/7 doormen so packages aren't stolen. Laundry in-building. Elevators. Prime location to Columbus Circle / Central Park. No pests on upper floor (yet). Tiny trash chute on each floor.
Cons:
Old building and LIMITED HEAT. The building controls the heat, which means even if you turn on the heat in your apartment, it will not turn on unless the building has it on. Invest in a portable heater. In-unit A/C is also terrible. My room stays around 70% humidity. Invest in a dehumidifier and fan. Small fitness center costs $600/year (not worth). Thin walls. Poorly insulated windows with gaps so you can hear 56th VERY clearly (including horses, pedestrians, cars, daily construction in the parking garage, and trash trucks twice a week). Moving in and out is only allowed M-F from 9a-4p.

Pretty good building and great location
Former Tenant
Pros:
Friendly door people
Central location, a bunch of subway lines available
Cons:
Heating was so fickle
Sometimes I was left super cold because the heat would not be turned on during the day time
