Fine place to live when you're younger

I wanted to rely on this site when moving to NYC but I feel many people who have good reviews don't post so I'm doing that to help others out.
Positives: new high-speed elevators; super courteous and helpful doormen and handymen; fast turnaround when requesting maintenance (clogged drains, etc.); nice location (steps from Grand Central); reasonable rent (unless you're living in the penthouse suite - you can definitely get a much better apt for $8000 but not for $4000 if you want a doorman building); w/d in some apts (a couple on each floor); bedrooms are reasonably-sized; convertibles allowed
Negatives: not much community (probably not family-friendly; lots of ibankers, UN workers, younger people in the building); not many amenities other than doorman and laundry facilities; my least favorite: have to go through broker to get into building (that's just like $4000 down the drain!)
Overall, I have liked living here, not perfect but more than livable.
