Found! And SRO On West 11th Street And Fifth Avenue!

The West Village is a tight market as it is, but to find a SRO (Single Room Occupancy) is pretty rare. Yesterday afternoon, though, I stumbled up one. Even more rare is that this one is very well maintained. Perhaps its proximity to NYU explains the clean hallways and very clean common bathroom down the hall. I saw students coming in and out during the 20 minutes I was there.

If all one needs is a room with a view, then this fifth floor walk up is perfect. It's 12 feet by 6 feet and judging from the floors and the fact that the sink and counter were taken out, I'm guessing the last resident was here for a looooong time.

Landlord didn't have a price posted for this yet. What do you think it should go for? $1,000 a month?

Welcome home!


Just enough room for a bed and a desk.


The floors need to be redone.


Clean bathroom just down the hall. There are baths on every floor.
