I lived in the East Village for 30 years. I met my husband at a club there and did my internship/residency there. My apartment was like yours with a lot of light and I saw the Empire State, Chrysler buildings as well as the WWC's from my top floor walk-up. When I first moved there in 1991, the community was so small that people would say, "Yeah, you're the new girl in town" lol. Paid $1800 for a one bedroom in the end before Jared Kushner bought us out and turned the units into dormitories for young Wall Streeters in 2011. Still worked in the EV until the pandemic. Now I'm a country girl within striking distance of NYC and Dual Spice Shop on First Ave... one of my favorite haunts. Thanks for a glimpse of your lovely life!

Elena - you have carved out such a beautiful life for yourself!! Being in your twenties, living in NYC, in the East Village no less in a gorgeous apt w/laundry!! Halleluiah! I have seen many of your videos here on YT & have always enjoyed your content. Love design, decor & seeing how people arrange their homes. So much fun!! It was so special getting to see where you live! I am in my fifties & live 25 mins outside of the city - pretty much my whole life. And though I never lived in NYC - it's always been a simple train ride away which I have always appreciated. Many of my friends lived in NYC in their twenties while still single & no kids & have all been so thankful for the opportunity...which was a plus for me cuz I always had a place to stay over! I wish you good health & fun as you continue your wonderful career & journey enjoying all that NYC has to offer!!

Akira is actually a movie and u should watch it because it’s really good and blew my mind. You definitely don’t need to be into anime to watch it! It’s a cult classic and was very revolutionary to the point it inspired a whole wave of cyberpunk/sci fi media (even in America). Even if you’re not into that kind of stuff, it’s an excellent movie and probably one of the best to come out of Japan (warning, it is very intense so be in the right mindset to watch it) 🥰

Have you ever been to Melbourne, Australia? It’s where I’m from and not saying it’s anywhere comparable but I feel like in a way it’s Australia’s New York. It’s so cultural, and beautiful and unique in its own right and similar in the way one night you could be at the theatre and the next you’re at some secret underground bar or club. I love it so much. You should visit one day! xx

I lived on 9th btw 1st and 2nd as soon as I graduated college and came back home. Took over my uncle’s lease on a 2 bedroom apartment with 2 friends. The rent was $2000 a month in 2002. My part was $667. Lived there from 2002-2006. Saw the East Village getting gentrified all around me in those 4 years. Little mom and pop shops turning into bullshit sex and the city wanna be boutiques and trendy hipster coffee shops. All these fucking spotty yuppie college pricks popping into bars. The neighbor got really saccharine.

I live in NYC all my life, and I will say, that Landlord/Property owner Saw You Coming A Mile Away. YOU got stiffed. $6,000 is mortgage, there are people who live in your neighborhood who pay's less for the same size apartment or larger (no roommates) SMH. I work in the East Village and I must tell you, You guys are not paying for the apartment, you are paying for the Area (No Balcony/Terrace??...Not worth it, it really is not. You can get that same size apartment (for yourself) for less in Queens, Bronx, better part of Brooklyn, (staten Island you can rent a house for yourself for $2,000) a ferry ride to Manhattan. smh
