Wrap dresses are so uncomfortable. Always adjusting making sure it's all lined up right. Then you have to worry if it's going to be windy. If so you're holding the bottom piece down the whole time. Too much work dvf. [ Reply | More ]

East or West? FT doorman? I think you can find something, but the subway may be a little trickier. What about being far from the subway, but close to a cross-town bus? (Yes, it's a PITA.) Look on streeteasy.com and pounce when you find something! [ Reply | More ]

On the East side, with which I'm more familiar, you wouldn't be able to find that anywhere west of second avenue. Look in the York Avenue area. But you're still looking at a brownstone walk up type thing. 3bds are usually a million a bedroom in the better neighborhoods [ Reply | More ]
