1 Bedroom below 96th

Here's a Q-line at 25 CPW: http://www.streeteasy.com/nyc/rental/501311-rental-25-central-park-west-lincoln-square-new-york

That's a nice budget, but you can't get a co-op sublease that will be guaranteed for multiple years, so your choices are going to be rental buildings and townhouses.

If it's townhouses, there's a cute two-bedroom on West Tenth Street that I think one of my clients will be moving out of, but there's no doorman. In general, all that adorable Village inventory is going to be doorman-less.

If it's a rental building my pick would be Barclay Tower. Neighborhood is eh, but you'll pay around $4K for a one-bedroom in a full amenity building, and the views will be spectacular.

i'm almost w/o speech - why spend 75K on a one bed? You can spend alot less and get a vn apt.
