Unbeatable Location and Great Management
Former Tenant
Pros:
As the title suggests, this location is unbeatable! Very well connected to transit, things to do, and a few grocery store options. The doormen are incredibly nice. Although the laundry is a bit pricey, there are PLENTY of washing/drying machines and the room is always impeccably clean. I have never seen a cleaner basement in New York City! They also have a great package handling system. I never fear my packages being stolen. Anytime we had maintenance issues, the management responded basically instantly and fixed the problem in under an hour. Some residents complain about noise which is why I gave it a 4 star but honestly, we lived on the 15th floor and rarely were bothered by street noise - just a normal amount you would expect living in Columbus Circle.
Cons:
I wish we could live here forever for all of the reasons listed above, however, it is a bit out of our budget. I think it is a relatively good price for the area but we are moving out to cut costs. Also worth noting.... our utilities were practically negligible. ~20/month in the summer and ~30/month in the winter. We did live in a studio so maybe that's why they were low but I was pleasantly surprised.

Do not live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is in a great location, close to the park and Columbus Circle subway stop... that's the only positive.
The doormen are very nice as well.
Cons:
The building is constantly under construction, there is always drilling and sawing noises loud enough that it feels like your walls are shaking. Good luck getting anything done if you work from home.... and they won't make accommodations regardless of the circumstances. Don't even get me started on the management. The one leasing agent is condescending, rude, and will tell you to "let him finish" not even ten seconds after he cuts you off. He couldn't care less about you after he has your down payment and security deposit. The elevators are also always busy because the first 6 floors are all doctors offices.
Advice to owner:
Maybe care about your current tenants a little instead of the future tenants you don't even have yet
