When I was single, I could live in an apartment like that. All I need is a laptop, a stereo and books to read and I'm happy. Laptop and stereo doesn't require much space and I could always get books at the library to read (if there isn't room for bookshelves). Being New York City, what would one need a kitchen for? When you are surrounded by at least 10,000 restaurants/delis within walking distance and can get a corned beef sandwich at 2 in the morning, you've got it made, foodwise.

NYC is like a big chicken farm where all the chickens have lost their heads. Everyone running around with really no direction and bouncing into each other. The coop situation, and the real estate market, are simply bezerk. Even in Brookyln and in the Bronx prices have skyrocketed.

It's cheaper to buy groceries than to eat out all the time. For what it costs for one sandwich at a deli, one could buy a pound or two of whatever and a loaf of bread, and have enough sandwiches to last a week.

Isn't the city great? I wouldn't mind buying a closet to live in if I could find one on the upper west side. It sure beats the hell out of commuting through that goddamn Lincoln Tunnel. (no, I cannot afford the ferry and PATH is nowhere near me in NJ.)
