- True 3bedroom means three rooms that each fit a queen/full, but nothing else
- At least one "bedroom" in each apartment I saw lacks windows and/or a closet (very problematic since each room will literally only fit a bed)
- "Big" living room means you can maybe fit a love seat, but nothing else - likely not even a loveseat + coffee table
- "Huge" living room means its actually normal sized
- Bathrooms were nice, definitely the highlight
- Elevator building + doorman + laundry in basement make this a luxury apartment
- Beware "duplex" apartments, as they all seem to be first floor + basement turned apartment -- basement gets little to no natural light, and this building is in Zone A. Pre-Hurricane Sandy, there were no living spaces on the basement level, and if something similar happens again, you can guarantee the mini sub-pumps being added under the staircase won't save your stuff.
