As a New York native I can confirm you are right but it is harder to find a brownstone in its original state with all floors belonging to the one apartment unless your insanely rich or have had the brownstone in your family for GENERATIONS

[@az25blue]

Facts!

[@LCD1DRMS]

As a NYKR i can comfirm

[@kizzykat9120]

I was a nanny for a family in Greenwich Village who lived in a brownstone (they were insanely rich). The brownstone was gorgeous! But I didn't always enjoy all the stairs.

[@jayalex_8]

Never knew they were originally 3 storeys. We would call that a ‘townhouse’ in the UK. They must have been gorgeous 😢

[@kennaelpis]

this instantly made me think of Wendy William Native New Yorker cover

[@yasminni485]

Toilet paper over is actually the correct way to put on a toilet paper roll (according to the original patent). It's easier to grab cuz it doesn't disappear behind the roll (it's facing you) and also something about the way it touches the wall.

[@AlaskanCam]

I was just about to comment this! But now that I have a crazy cat, I flip flop between over and under depending on if she’s hyperfixated on toilet paper or not lol.

[@pihlall1234]

Yes and then also the prints are the right way around!!

[@yasminni485]

@@AlaskanCam lol, yeah, cats. I had to just keep the door to the bathroom closed at all times.

[@yasminni485]

@@pihlall1234 true, I didn't think of that as I don't use printed paper.

[@Kasiarzynka]

Those are my arguments for toilet paper over, and if it's indeed in the patent like that, then I can finally win these arguments if I ever have them

[@LunaWitcherArt]

"It is like I'm searching for something that doesn't exist" Yeah, that's the entire The Sims 4 experience lol

[@chloewigmoree]

To fix the door use the colour swatch option and the door should reappear when clicked :)

[@SalvyGirlCindy13]

Jesus, this is the cutest apartment. It's making me rethink my decor in the apartment I just moved into

[@ReneHollyDesigns]

Reason for having toilet paper over is that under you will more than likely touch the wall. Over you will not touch the wall so it's cleaner. LOL though it was pretty funny you wonder what is wrong with people doing it that way. The build is very cute too, great decor. ♥

[@Ashley-cr4ow]

Usually you can rest your elbow on it to stop the roll and grab a piece

[@dmfitz5521]

Yes! Thank you 😊

[@mariomai5]

Architectural Digest has some pretty good videos about New York brownstones and classics apartments in the city (classic 6 for example) , very interesting to watch.

[@Will.T.]

Hi Deli, I’ve been loving the apartment renos. I would love to see some new Barbie builds. Especially since horse ranch is coming out, you could make an equestrian Barbie build!!

[@deligracy]

Fun!

[@lisaflack89]

You should have turned the dining table 90°. Then it would have ben more space to walk next to it to the bedroom. It would be more flow in the apartment that way.

[@kegansky]

That tiny little plant would’ve drove Carrie crazy!

[@alessiagatti590]

11:35 you almost got me really thinking the video was done😂 i was so confused😂

[@deligracy]

😂

[@loustock3065]

Have you ever seen the Carrie Diaries? It was Carrie as a teenager and her introduction to fashion and New York, It was canceled after 2 seasons I think, but it was so cute and Anna Sophia Robb was Carrie. I think this apartment is a beautiful updated look for the character though! Amazing as always, and so happy to see you back x

[@deligracy]

I never watched it! But I saw clips :)

[@laurieb.5199]

Hey there Deli! This build was again fantastic! As a New Yorker you're right about the layout. Some have been converted to be two or three apartments, there are some in Brooklyn and Manhattan, but there are very few that remain intact as like a one family home with the original structuring. Glad to see you feeling better!

[@deligracy]

The big ones are pretty insane! Glad I wasn’t making it up haha.

[@iriscastro3224]

Carrie actually did not like plants because she couldnt manage keep them alive I believe. Love the build!

[@liapania]

I hope you reno the spice district apartment with the little balcony! It's my favourite one 💛

[@deligracy]

I’m sure we’ll get to that one soon 😀

[@tanadams]

I always turn this into a 2 or 3 bedroom because it just feels so huge. My Carrie Bradshaw inspired apartment is always the one where Salim starts off. 😊 Also, if doors and windows glitch out with apartments, you can click them with the swatch tool to pop them back 😊

[@BlacCat773]

17 Culpepper has a special place in my heart (after you remove the Lot traits). My very 1st & fav sim lived there starting out.

[@asmaa.interiorsketch]

This gave me flashbacks from your sims 3 apartment reno, that black and white striped wall is something i will never forget. 😊❤

[@deligracy]

Yes!! You have a great memory! X

[@madhbh]

Love the use of the decor to the max wallpaper I think it’s really a slept on option. I love the colors along with the tiger one too

[@ellenini]

I loveeee the mixy matchy feel to this, feels very legit for a ny apartment. also i feel like the no door to the bedroom and the one door to the bathroom makes sense too, sometimes ny apartments have weird layouts like this so it's actually perfect!!! love it deli

[@AlonaLorelina]

Yay back to rebuilding San Myshuno! From someone who lives in an apartment I love to get inspiration from these builds. Lovely as always, Deli. ❤

Loving seeing the two different little series or remaking San Myshuno and Newcrest. The bedroom on this apartment was gorgeous, not normally my style but I really like it. Hopefully your infrared sauna was enjoyable , I’ve heard great things about them!

[@helenvargas1094]

Your comments about the toilet roll made me laugh. Growing up our toilet rolls always went under also, because that’s the way my mum always did it. I didn’t realise that over was a thing until I started working in housekeeping in a hotel and I had to do it over, and then fold the ends. 😂

[@bdvideostudios4679]

[@purpledragonfly4]

*The toilet roll was designed - as the patent shows - to go OVER! That way, you're not hitting your hand on the wall reaching for it if it's under. Over looks neater too. Sorry Deli lol*

[@foranzo1582]

What a wonderful apartament!! I don't have many of the kits you used but I'm excited to download this build anyway and have the game replace the objects for me. One of the love interests in my Sims save lives on this lot and I'll be more than happy to upgrade her life from the og dark apartament to something more lovely!!

That wallpaper in the bedroom reminds me of the black house from harry potter :)

[@tdawg8033]

Just what i needed before bed ❤❤❤

[@lizzgf]

Hey Deli, since you asked! XD If you have toilet paper roll going under, the people who prefer to tear the paper using one hand, can leave smears on the wall. With tiled walls it does not matter however. It is widely known fact here! Much love, from Estonia!

[@malynke]

THE AIDEN CHAIR!

[@stitchwitchsarah]

i agree with you about the toilet paper facing the wall bc if kids or pets get into it and spin the roll around it doesnt completely unroll 😂

[@SH0124_]

I love apartment reno videos! Keep ‘em up 🤩👌

[@M1rlyn]

I saw AJLT season 1, haven't started season 2 yet. I was surprised how much I liked it (minus miranda's storyline!). But yes, I very much miss Samantha. I still go back and watch the OG seasons as a comfort show while I'm cross-stitching!

[@deligracy]

Season 2 is better imo! Less cringe and is becoming more like the original series humour again 😃

[@heg203]

I live in a brownstone in the upper West side of Manhattan. The house was originally one big five floor house built in 1923. Over time, it got divided first into each floor a separate apartment, and now there are two apartments on each floor. they are not huge but it’s really beautiful here. :-)

[@Allygadberry]

I love you’re videos ❤️❤️❤️ you have such a contagious smile and personality much love ❤️

[@KalebCorvid]

When i play Sims 4, i tend to always use this apartment as a starter. So having more ideas for how to decorate the space is always a nice thing! And even if the result in this video isnt /my/ personal taste, it's really pretty and i could definitely see myself using it in a playthrough. Another winning renovation Deli!

[@strick405]

Decorative plants were hugely popular in the 70s and a frenzy in the 80s. All crazes come and go. Plants imho will always come back.

[@strick405]

Elegance and finer things too will always come back.

[@strick405]

Toilet paper hanging over the top unrolls whichever direction you whap at it - up or down, but coming out the bottom you must whop it upward only to unwind your wipe. Just true science. No judgement.

[@R-gp3zu]

So happy to see you back Deli ◡̈ Hope you are well and taking good care x

I'm loving it. I watch it every week. It's great. It does need some more humor. But I do enjoy this show a lot.

[@alphabetsnoop]

We do over for the TP because I am disabled and it is easier to rip more for my ostomy one handed. The tension causes it to rip easier than when it is under.

[@maidenlilylace]

idk y but I always naturally put my tp under without realizing it, then my sis complained about it so I put it over now. our toilet is "glitchy" so we have to use thin, scratchy toilet paper so it doesn't get clogged. LOVELY APARTMENT DELI! idk y but commenting to u about toilet paper preference is so relaxing💖🚽💝 XD

Love your renovation vids❤😊I've watched all of the thus far🤗

[@loptseldr]

Typing as I watch so this might be a lot and a bit all over the place haha XD Those big white bifold doors you choose first with the many parts pulled back always look so big and clunky to me I never use them. Id also have kept the bathroom the size it was when you first put it in so the flat entrance door was in the middles of the wall it was on, but thats just me personally. The entrance just seems to small and claustrophobic being on two tiles wide. I do love the walk in wardrobe though, thats a dream of mine!

I have to agree with you on poop-ticket Deli, you have it roll under, so if you HAVE TO, in a pinch, you can separate your paper one-handed. Sometimes you gotta multi-task on the loo.
