The size is very good but I noticed most of the windows are looking right into the building across. She said they are moving to a better place and nearer to the Park.

I think it gets better with a dishwasher and washer/dryer and an elevator that doesn’t break down for weeks at a time!

@@PrettyinthePines I know you will love to have a washer and dryer girl. Your decoration skills are awesome.

Gorgeous!!! Love the kitchen!

Right!!!! Omgoshhhhh

Wow that’s really cool tho

@@gadger1320 tbh we don't even really realize that some buildings are that old. Most of them look as new as many other, younger houses. 😂

Where do u live 😂

@@vampiregirlTVD Switzerland :)

@@ItsNadine71335 I’m pretty close, in Sweden, and our buildings aren’t so old. We consider it old if it’s from 19th century. I imagine what old Swiss houses look like 😄

it's funny how people think things like this add value, but it actually doesn't. major appliances, yes. decorative flourishes, no.

Your video just popped up on my screen & it was great to see your updates to a turn of the century apartment. I used to live at 440 Riverside Drive & 116th in a corner apartment over looking the river & 116th. The most wonderful years were spent there, my friend still lives there since she was a student at Barnard in the early 70’s in her early days she & roommates called it the Bonanza. It is really huge, 3 bedrm, maids quarters w/half bath, tiny eat in kitchen, nice entry w/French doors into a lovely small room for the tv. It has a gigantic living room & dining area, 2 bath long hallway to the bedrooms overlooking Riverside. The outside of the building curves replicating the apartment bldg on the other side of 116th & Riverside & big lobby w/doormen. In ‘99 it was $1500 rent stabilized. I’m forwarding you video to my friend and another in Albany w/a 1800’s house with similar style. Can’t wait to view your past videos & see your upcoming home. Your terrific!

I agree. As the landlord, I would also use pictures of the apartment now (furniture and all) to advertise the vacancy.

I like your style and can't wait to see what you will do to the new apt

It adds a lot to showcase the potential of an apartment for future clients. I would love to have the same design if I move in.

It is reaaally spacious for NY! The extra living room/dining room really makes it unique

Thank you so much, Laurin!! ❤️ I would love to take some interior design classes so I can really learn more.

My thoughts EXACTLY.

I agree 100%! Feel the same!

Yes, I love your style. You are so talented.

😂😂😂😂 5000$ for two bedroom wow

Yes cause it’s so beautiful. There’s a lot of things she decorated with, but it’s so well done

She’s can be an interior decorator it. They did a dam fine job. Well thought out and placed. Colors and furniture blended well Beautiful I love it. I can’t wait to see the news place. ❤️

No, they are taking it with them, especially the fireplace mantles. They spent a lot of money there to make it look good but it's a rental.

I agree on leaving the moldings, backsplash and flooring-they’re not conducive to really reusing.

@@MTMF.london yes, the fireplace is theirs - not attached to the wall, however, everything else that they have done, which gives so much character to the place, is what I was referring to them to leave & not waste time taking down. 😉

ok ok I take back "extremely"

@@PrettyinthePines it's fine haha! I visited NYC a few years back and that is an old building in terms of the city, it's certainly a beautiful one too! ❤️

Thanks!! We spent a lot of time here in 2020 so we made it feel extra home-y!

Thank you so much for watching! ❤️ 2020 gave us a lot of extra time to make it our own!

I love that though. A lot of buildings in this city are brand new. Some old. So relatively speaking, this one is old. But compared to some, it’s not.

Well this isn't the UK...America, as you should be well aware, is a new country.

I'm American, but adore a quirky British comedian named Eddie Izzard. This idea of "old" architecture in America vs that in the UK reminds me of brief part of one of his shows. I think he's joking about a town in Florida, where they are praising a building, and saying it's "50.... yeeaars .... oolllddd !!" (I tried to add the emphasis to the words that Eddie put). It's of course funny as is most of the material in his shows. But, everything is relative, so here in the US, something that's ~120 years old is quite old. : )

Gou

the people who rent it hopefully will never see this lol

Love that! There are really lots of temporary fixes these days!

its a rental and no.

Thanks Lindy!!
