Brownstoner's, in this instance, was an ambiguous and somewhat casual and uninformative mention, by fact or lack thereof for reasons of its own editorial ehtics. Details are the Mama's specialty (and nobody does it better), plus our Mama took the story further into other related properties as an <i>exclusive</i>, even if she doesn't use those words. It's all good. Peace and fairness among the property gossips is the goal.

Gotta love the terrace on this one though. I'm suprised that nothing has been done to make this unit appealing or turnkey for a prospective new owner, despite listing it for too high a price. More celeb "I lived here and that justifies everything" ego? Apparently, and it's getting annoying.angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03505468088062683138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-82385014349526947042009-08-19T18:31:35.996-07:002009-08-19T18:31:35.996-07:00angel, the horrid greenhouse is at their new place...angel, the horrid greenhouse is at their new place, not this one, but if the kitchen window overlooks the terrace I suppose you could knock that wall down and add a greenhouse if you really wanted more room. I love the patio furniture and I think if anyone can get away with that blue and a black bedroom it's MB. The TV I think is just too big and seems to loom over the whole room. I'm just glad I now know what type of trash can he chose even of it does seem to have a semicircular potrack over it. Very much looking forward to the rest of the tale tomorrow.

Good thing it has spacious living areas for a 1 bedroom, because some of it needs to be reclaimed to create a decent size kitchen. Or, assuming I'm interpreting what I can see correctly, perhaps the kitchen window wall can be knocked out and the "horrid greenhouse thing" enclosed, combining the two spaces into a larger kitchen. Hard to tell for sure without a floor plan to study.<br /><br />I can easily imagine the black bedroom you mentioned seeing as being beautiful. Nothing is off limits decor wise since it dosen't really matter so much what you do, as HOW you do it. That said, the creative juices which inspired the bedroom wall color in this unit, clearly began and ended with the paint selection.

I can't really argue with your points. But, honestly, this place doesn't do it for me in the least. That airline kitchen is ridiculous.
