I loved the nanny. And it’s still on, on a cable channel

[@Sandgee62]

It was just last year right? 😂😂😂

[@ja-uh9gz]

I really like this one. I love the character of the old building, well maintained...even the basement was organized and looked good. I love that this place is not boxy, and has a lot of the old character..plus the skylights. The outdoor area is totally private, plus the fence enclosure is high enough for safety. It looks clean and was well cared for. Other than the very high price, it's a winner.

[@jeanhansel5805]

It's even higher after you pay for utilities. For the price, they could have included extra lighting in the closet of a kitchen.

[@doctorzaius4084]

I'm a little late but here's my fun fact for this very unique, very cool building: the grey thing that looks kinda like a face at 5:56 in the video is a rectifier for the antique elevator. It turns 3-phase alternating current into 240V direct current to run the motor. New York City still had DC service available from the street up until 2007, but that was not actually the end of direct current in the city. Any buildings with remaining DC stuff got these little rectifiers afterwards and there's still hundreds if not thousands of buildings that have them.

[@SpoonDono]

I love The Nanny I’ve always wanted to know what the inside looked like Definitely different from the sound stage they created!

[@tastx3142]

The bolt on the lower part of the door is to help prevent the door from being pushed inward due to the weight of snow in the winter as it piles up especially with wind.

[@j.kristineemmons]

I love those NYC slanted skylight roof thingies, like in Hey Arnold! I've seen them in other vids, and as much as I love them, how do you sleep? I didn't know there were shades like that. Bam! Solution! And Cash got it right in saying the view is "classic New York"...freaking love it. I love big cityscapes.

[@Artemis-jr3pz]

PSA: Don't put anything bigger than a kiddy pool on a roof. Even small pools are HEAVY when they're full, and most roofs are not built to hold that much weight

Cash if you thought that escalator was a long ride you definitely haven't been to Grand Central Treminal for the new LIRR station. That'll definitely take you a few minutes riding. I love that building. So much character & the lobby is drop dead gorgeous. That said, converting it from a single family home to multiple apartments has definitely given it a chopped up feeling. That skylight cover could definitely be used as a table. The kitchen is rather small tho & for the price I actually would expect more. Now if Alex didn't know about "The Nanny" & Fran Dresher who did remember "movin on up to the east side with a deluxe apartment..."

WHOA! That guy's rent went from $2050 to $2900 in just 2 years? I thought a Landlord could only increase the rent 3% maximum year over year? I loved the featured apartment and building (I actually wanted to see the one across the street from it) but I wouldn't want to pay $8500/month for it.

[@653j521]

You didn't hear about the covid discounts in NYC and LA?

[@BrooklynAlien]

​@@653j521 "covid discounts" that's ridiculous. Some landlords did a "huge favor" by not price gouging for a few years so they made up for it by doubling the rent and pricing out all their current and long term tenants. Only rich people can live in Manhattan and all surrounding decent neighborhoods now. The rent prices shown on this channel are ridiculous.

[@taylorlibby7642]

Depends on how you have the rest of the apartment set up I suppose. The doors still let a bunch of light in. I could see using the room with the French doors as a library/office/guest room and leaving the doors open most of the time.
