Park West Village

I can remember living up there back in the early 1980's when large 1 bedrooms with balconies rented for $500 a month. LOL!

About 12 years ago we looked at some sponsor apartments in Park West Village. They showed us the materials they planned to use for the renovations and I was not impressed. Remember, sponsors often order cabinets, etc. in bulk and just shoe horn the stuff into any apartment, using a lot of fillers in the kitchens. I tried to sell me an apartment without the renovations, but they refused. These places were in original conditions.

However, I looked at other apartments renovated by owner's themselves. Either their renovations were good quality but too taste specific or poor quality, so we bought elsewhere. It just happened that, at the time we were looking, that was all that was available. That's the real estate market.
