This NYC Apartment’s SO CREEPY… The Last Renter Went Crazy

This apartment is cool, but its not exactly what you’d expect to live in when coming to New York City. The rooms are a good size, but things are a bit strange in places, however since this apartment is the cheapest 2 bedroom anywhere in NYC, its probably going to rent immediately.

I lived in this building back when I was in Brooklyn. Nice working class neighborhood and quite affordable. I do recommend avoiding ground floor apartments or apartments facing the courtyard. Those courtyard lamps can be very bright at night even with black out curtains and sometimes people hangout in the courtyard at night to smoke so it can get noisy.

[@Strocophate]

That's a flushometer toilet. The prewar apartment building I grew up in had them. They are indeed basically clog-proof, and have a powerful flush.

[@MissCane9]

I prefer them.

[@nycdweller]

The best toilets. I still have mine!

[@thecatatemyhomework]

My parents used to have one of those. Their building was built in the late 1950s. They lived there for many years and never had a problem with the toilet clogging up.

[@JasonFlorida]

That's for people who are full of shit!

[@marywood8794]

I wish that I still had one of those toilets that actually uses enough water to flush the contents! Lol I've been plungering and toilet augering my toilet for years. We're a family of 4, don't even flush toilet paper anymore and it still clogs! We end up using just as much water with all the extra flushing as the old school toilets. It's not better for the environment! Lol

[@danielmarek4609]

The higher outlet on the wall in the kitchen was there for when wall clocks had to be plugged in as they weren't battery powered. Based on the age of the building I'd bet good money on that being the case. Especially if you see the outlet somewhat recessed, to allow the cord to be rolled up behind the clock. Just a little info.

[@otherworlder1]

Good catch! And yep!

[@JayDeeDubb]

Nice. Thanks for informing us. Now it’s good for a microwave on a pantry or rolling cart.

[@Bobrogers99]

The apartment is basic, but if everything is functional and clean it's quite livable. The location is near the subway, and with limited access to the courtyard it feels safer than some others we've seen. The rooms are a good size and bright. This looks like a good "starter" apartment at a surprisingly reasonable price if you have a housemate. I'd want to locate the nearest laundromat.

[@cynn3367]

First thing I thought of also was Public Housing. For some reason it also reminded me of the PS I went to as a child on Long Island. Gave me a strange, not unpleasant, feeling, sort of like back in time...

[@jazzpants]

[@marylbullock]

It is not public housing. There is a huge waiting list of any public housing apartment.

[@MissCane9]

@@marylbullock That no longer falls under public housing. You will no longer find a low-income unit in that complex. Developers can't simply throw current tenants out, but new tenants will pick up the slack

[@samanthab1923]

[@sinash]

If you are able, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND a visit to Greenwood Cemetery. It's a gorgeous cemetery/park that's got it all! Beautiful landscaping design, great examples of architecture & design, many historical and famous people buried there. The cemetery was founded in 1838 and is landmarked. Trust me, it will be a very educational and enjoyable outing. As for the apartment? I like it! $2600/month for a 2 bedroom is an opportunity! Yes, it's basic (I found the brick "portraiture" interesting) but it works! What REALLY drew me to the unit and apartment building was the proximity of the diner and the flower shop! How can you go wrong?

[@MamaCarola1]

Yes!! The cemetery is magnificent! What made me laugh is so many people calling it the projects. Don't know how many of them have ever been in the projects but this is nothing like them

[@nswelles1]

Hi, Cash! About the toilet...I've heard you remark about these toilets before...when I was growing up in NYC in the '50s and '60s, almost all toilets were like this one in apartment buildings, new or old. My understanding was that they saved water because one flush was powerful enough to send everything down the tubes. Later on, they were replaced with tank toilets, perhaps for aesthetic reasons. The replacements probably used comparable amounts of water. 🤓

[@samanthab1923]

Yup, my Nans apt. had one. Beautiful view of the Hudson too

[@charmaccents6278]

I like the courtyard. It looks well cared for and clean. Nice trees too which probably attract birds so one can wake up in the morning to the sounds of birds singing. The upgrades were nicely done, and I like the framed brick on the wall. This is a good deal for a couple of young roommates who don't mind having no laundry in the unit or the building and only one bathroom. Will need to buy and install a window A/C unit. The heat source is from radiators which probably means all of the units have steam heat which is regulated and paid for by the landlord. Are those steel front doors for the units? The front unit door for this place is very thick, and the neighboring unit has a steel door. I like the building's secure front entry, and the walkway to the courtyard has lighting in the ceiling. This is one of the better places compared to those shown in the past few days.

[@Crow-Fly]

Great neighborhood, big, bright and good price! Great video! Is nice to see ones I might be able to afford too :)

That looks exactly like the Dunbar apartments I lived in as a child. Back around 1950. Same courtyard layout. But it was on 7th avenue.

[@marylivingstone9815]

When you looked out the window into the courtyard it reminded me of an apartment I had in Sunnyside, Queens with a courtyard. One night I woke to howling and other ungodly sounds. Turned out the courtyard was the meeting place for feral cat “courting”. A lot of cats and even more potential kittens. The apartment was nice and I would enjoy living near the cemetery.

[@deb7518]

My first ever scary nighttime situation as a child was howling cats outside my bedroom window, combined with the silhouette if one running frantically up and down said window. Try calming your 3 yr old down who wakes up to THAT!!😮😮😮
