@Kate, M.D. And what is the point of an apartment all your own if you’re not getting regular tail?

Yeah, this lady is single. Has to be. There is no sex happening in that space.

@kellyography You are a hoarder. Just get a Kindle for your books. You can live and go anywhere and still have your entire library with you all the time.

@kellyography It’s probably a little more than 400 square feet. Perhaps I’ll take photos and post them! And I hosted a dinner party for 12 once—I just had to move some things around before the guests arrived.

@Mike Dang: I clearly got some brain-wires crossed (yes), because I could have sworn that the video started out with a shot looking north on 6th Ave. at the Jefferson Market Library. But no, it is just another building that has a similar silhouette.

Related question: How many square feet is your studio, Mike Dang? And do you entertain there? That is my main worry about moving to a studio apartment – that I won’t have space for a “living” area as well as a sleeping area, and my base of all operations will be relegated to my bed, as it has been while living with roommates for six years.

@kellyography Oh, they’re two separate ladies/apartments. One lives in a 105 square foot apartment in the Village, the other lives in a 90 square foot apartment on the Upper West Side next to Central Park.

I’ve seen this video before and still don’t understand why she says she lives in the West Village but then goes on to say that Central Park is a block away, and Lincoln Center is nearby, etc. Where is this apartment?!

Also, I could never give up all of my books. One reason I am seriously considering moving out of NYC is because I cannot find a new place (or roommate situation) in my price range that has space to fit all my books and records. Plus, I could never live without a kitchen. I need to be able to bake!

This just sadly reminds me of how small the Brooklyn apartment I will be moving into is. Sigh, I’ll miss your spacious and affordable apartments, Chicago.

So I guess she has sex on the floor?

These make the 520sqft studio I am about to move into seem like a palace! Not in Manhattan, but it is a good deal and I was worried about the size, but sheesh! I don’t think I could live with such clutter, no matter the location or price.
