My friend Dan’s lease was up, so we set out to find him a funky upgrade. He’d been living on the Upper East Side in a studio for a few years, and was craving that downtown lifestyle…and maybe a wall too!
But his current landlord was offering a pretty sweet deal for him to stay…so we needed to find an apartment that was right on target or it just wouldn’ t make any sense. So instead of running out and hitting the pavement, we did our homework! We narrowed it down to ONE apartment–either this was the one or he’d be better off waiting to make the move.
Turns out it was just what he was looking for–but there were other hunters there too so we knew we had to pounce! Unfortunately someone snagged it about 10 minutes before us (DRATS!!), but luckily the apartment just one floor below would be vacant sooooon…
So we wiggled ourselves in…and YESS!! It was perfect (and the exposed brick took the charm level up a few levels too) so we snapped it up!!
Congratulations Dan–welcome to the cool part of Manhattan!
