Dana, I had a similar response to Nina's post about that amazing living situation for Roselyn Leibowitz and Catherine Redmond, the two friends profiled in Sunday's New York Times. Given all the moaning and fantasizing we all did recently about how to achieve financial contentment without trading in our less than lucrative professions, I can't imagine how these two artists could pull off $3 million in renovations. Do I smell a sugar daddy lurking behind that newly installed kitchen counter?
The whole thing was especially depressing to me after going this weekend to look at apartments with my own platonic, best friend roommate. Our tiny tiny apartment has become a little too tiny tiny for us, but even a place with one extra notch of breathing room (while staying within our price range) is so horribly far from what Leibowitz and Redmond get to call home. Ninety yards of book shelves?? We'd be happy just to have our beds not be pushed up against opposite sides of the same wall.
Um, that said...anyone know of some spacious yet affordable-for-journalists-without-sugar-daddies apartment in Brooklyn? Let me know! We are wonderfully responsible tenants!
