Alfred Lerner Hall is the student center. It was built from 1996-1999 replacing Ferris Booth Hall.
The stairs in the 'exit' stairwells are the quickest way to navigate Lerner.
The piano lounge's name comes from the giant grand piano located next to the entrance. Because people are welcome to play, the lounge can sometimes be a noisy place to study. If you want peace and quiet, you could head up to some of the seating littered around the building, or down to the seating outside the Party Space entrance. Also try the Satow Room on the 5th floor, and the ramp lounges on the 2nd floor.

History
Lerner Hall was designed by Bernard Tschumi. The design has been widely criticized for its slanted ramp structures, which are an inefficient means of moving about within the building and take up vital space.
Once Lerner was built, the administration distributed free T-shirts and other goodies with "CU on the Ramps" written on them. These were somehow supposed to encourage disinterested students to congregate on the ramps. Hmmm, that didn't work.
At least one student has proposed (successfully) on the ramps.[1]
More recently, Matthew Harrison tried to make Lerner cool with Glass House Rocks.
