Living in a NYC Tiny-House… Built 100 Years Ago

This apartment is so cool, and the best thing about it is NOBODY knows how great it is because its in a totally unexpected location not visible from the streets of New York City.

that AC installation point looks like a perfect way for a thief to get in

I think we need at least one episode with Alex and Charles together. I think they would play well together and you 3 would have a blast 😂

[@lindauribe6872]

Nice expensive apartments 😁

[@sherw7635]

There was one yesterday.

[@jagergerg9771]

I totally agree

[@MrRobfeds]

Cash, I’m sure the last thing you need is a request for you to work longer hours, but it would be really cool to see. Mix of rooftop apartments with shots taken at dusk so you show the atmosphere with lights on! Just a thought 😊

[@rebeccahelga32]

Great idea! But he has a house full of women, lol. Not gonna happen

[@sfoeric]

Second unit for me, if I were going to rent one of them. I would make the budget work to have the whole place to myself and not share the solitary bathroom with a roomie. Love the roof access for sure. And yeah, it has the better kitchen, too. See you in the next video Mr Jordan.

[@terretulsiak]

I get claustrophobic just watching this.

[@sinash]

Yep. Alex brought two winners today. I actually liked the 2nd unit ($4500/month) much better even though it's a two-bed and just one bath. I liked that layout much better than the first unit ($4500/month) two-bed and 1 1/2 bath. The snack area of the second unit felt like more of a kitchen because of the room through the pass-through. The Easy-Bake kitchen in the first unit... well. Anyway, they're nicely priced and in a great area.

[@MamaCarola1]

2nd was definitely way better. Don't remember if there was a laundry room in the basement tho. You know how much I hate spiral staircases. No wonder the deck furniture was staying up there. & you better like the other tenant since there's no fencing blocking them

[@sinash]

@@MamaCarola1 But... can't we all just get a long??? 🙄

[@MamaCarola1]

@sinash safe answer...it depends you know?

[@alanrogs3990]

lol, what a deal!

[@JustanotherLiz]

I lived in NYC all my life. I had a 6 room apartment and rent was $800. Huge Huge apartment. Rent controlled . All stores were close by. The ONLY reason we left NYC was coz the new building owners paid us a fortune to move. Going rate is $100,000. So we used the money to put a downpayment on a house by the Jersey shore. And we are 90mins away from NYC so I can go back any time I want . I usually do, to shop. We love it here. We have a small secret private beach a few mins away. And beautiful huge parks with lakes and hiking. We don’t miss NYC . The landlord of my old $800 apartment renovated it and is now making about $5500 a month . So they’re making their money back . I don’t care, we have two cars that we couldn’t park anywhere in NYC. It was a nightmare finding parking for our cars. Here we have plenty of parking right on our property and driveway . NYC is overrated . I don’t get why ppl want to live there. I’d never go back. I actually hated living in NYC . But we love it here.

[@kathrynbaker8215]

The one thing your videos have taught me is that being a mover in New York has to be the worst job with all those upper story apartments with narrow stairways, not to mention the stairs within the apartments themselves. I always hope that someone will mention a utility elevator for the movers. Do most/any apartments allow dogs?

[@sinash]

Ohhhh, TRUST ME! One PAYS the movers for all of their efforts!

Cash- You and Alex made the day brighter with energy and enthusiasm. Great fun today. Keep going. ☮️👏👏👏👏

[@figmo397]

That glass container you thought needed to be a terrarium is called a "carboy" and it's used in the fermentation stage for home brewing and home winemaking. Anyone with good sense would be using it on the deck to make beer because when you go to bottle beer, you want to do it on the deck because it gets pretty messy (I speak from firsthand knowledge).

[@dojo1249]

Or a piggy bank

[@ANIMALS_AND_MORE_moments]

Both apartments have a functional layout - nice style - love the roof deck.

[@Bobrogers99]

That's a great deck, but you share the space, and it's accessed via the master bedroom. Sixth-floor walkup would get old. The second unit has a more private but less interesting deck and more kitchen/living space, but it's also a multi-floor walkup and no mention of laundry in the building. I do like proximity of these units to Central Park.

[@plhm33]

It’s an awesome apart…I am assuming 5th floor walk up? There are 3 locks on the door to roof deck, but 2 huge windows on the roof deck and an AC sleeve you can kick in and gain access. Huge safety flags for $4500.

[@donnapaquette9231]

You guys are just to cute and funny! Both places look great, aspecially the outside area that I would definitely enjoy 🥰

[@nygrl6102]

I want to see a video of someone carrying a mattress up those spiral stairs 😂. Would the kitchen in the first one qualify as "symbolic"?

[@sinash]

🤣🤣🤣😂

[@mariar3767]

[@jfox9126]

I liked these a lot. Love the upper west side.

[@irenelacour3486]

[@dewflower7298]

#2 apartment I would put curtains in the living room and turn that to a bedroom and make the sunny room the living room. The living room would then be a nice bright place to hang out or work.

Love the 2nd one the best. The stairs going to the rooftop are so much better than the 1st one and so is the kitchen

[@whitneybrown4067]

Happy Wednesday CJ😀n This is Gonna b so Cool🔥🔥🔥👍….

[@kathyflorcruz552]

Its a great little place - but to think you're going to get a king sized bed up that skinny spiraling staircase is funny too, let alone any other decent furniture- you'd HAVE to assemble everything up there. And putting dshwashers in kitchens you only use paper plates & possibly a few coffee cups is funny too.

[@DrMason]

“There’s a hand towel…😮 - never mind.”

[@fannycraddock99]

Upper West Side is such a great area to live. Both apartments are good but #1 has a very small kitchen so #2 is my fav. Thanks.

[@mamaw9634]

Only in NYC is 2200 a month be considered affordable - and that is a per person amount!

[@riftwake178]

I love your videos. Keep 'em coming. Can't get enough. I particularly enjoy when you show case the tiny places like the little Harry Potter closet under the stairs. It doesn't go unnoticed!

[@alexdetrojan4534]

Finally! Two units that seem to be winners for a price, well, for NYC is fairly decent. More like these Cash.

[@alanrogs3990]

I know, right!

[@Antny.25]

5:57 That view out the window is perfect

[@alanrogs3990]

I know right? Buildings with people and streets, gotta love it! I'd think $6000 a month would be totally worth it. Coffee close by and I am sure some type of ethnic restaurant is right around the corner. Paradise!

[@jacquelinedimattia774]

I like that second one 😊

[@theoriginalbridgetconnors]

Two great apartments but my old knees screamed at me at the thought of going up all those stairs! If my knees were younger, I'd take either of those in a heartbeat.

[@alanrogs3990]

Why is that?

[@gpeg3076]

I wouldnt call $4500/mo rent something that falls into budget territory.

[@sinash]

Considering the current rental pricing in NYC... it's a budget bordering on bargain!

The walking closet 🤣😂 under the stair!!!! My godd you are hilarious!!!

[@Surf1HP]

i watch these damn videos all day... keep doing blood

[@MamaCarola1]

Walk-ups with no in-unit laundry. Not necessarily a deal breaker, especially if you're young. I now apparently live in a walk-up building bcuz "dueto the elevators being flooded (from the heavy rains) they will be out of order for the 'immediatefuture' (whateverthat means). & the neighborhood is definitely good & plenty of restaurants to choose from. Personally i think the 2nd place is better bcuz the stairs up to the roof deck are way easier to navigate & it's not gong through 1 of the bedrooms. Price for that area is surprisingly affordabe compared to others.

[@sinash]

Yes! The price was shockingly affordable given the location to Central Park. I see a couple/partnered or roommate situ in either one. But a roommate situ would work quite well in the second unit. Sorry about your elevator. That's a pain in the ass-ets. Though, that was A LOT of rain we had. I feared we would be on course for another major flood.

[@MamaCarola1]

@sinash it was. Never thought the elevators would be flooded, especially since there's no water around & the building is only 2-3 years old. Guess I won't be keeping amazon, fedex or ups drivers busy for a bit lol.

Love your videos. Having lived outside of NYC for a few years now, I much prefer my current living situations. We get SO MUCH MORE for under $2K/mo it seems ridiculous to live in a fourth floor walkup closet apartment at double the price - no matter how lovely the rooftop deck.

Second apartment was far better. It has an actual kitchen with a full sized frig. You would have a tough time getting furniture up the spiral staircase in the first apartment. You would need to take everything up the general building stairway and across the roof.

[@denisekenney6436]

Like the second one for the kitchen bc I cook! I can’t afford to eat out everyday but perhaps breakfast and lunch is affordable couple times a week for sure. I’d want the bedroom facing the street as well. Plus the stairs were real not one of those spiral stairs deal… and the price was affordable for the area. Alas, not affordable to me however. I live vicariously through Cash apartments 🫣

Can you fence off your deck/door so no one looks in or tries to open your door? Second apartment is much better both inside and outside space. The second small bedroon I would make into either a dining room or a tv room. Would put a smal hand rail going all the way up to roofdeck.

[@robertharris4100]

I Love the 1st apartment with the spiral staircase leading to the semi private roof. It's great that there's a bathroom & closet in the upstairs bedroom and I would use the downstairs bedroom as my livingroom. The common space would be a dining room & pieces of art. The walk-in closet is marvelous. And Cash, that is a true walk-in closet; unlike 99% of the other closets in your videos that you mistakenly call walk-in closets.
