Every now and then I find an apartment that I don't want to leave. This is one of them.
The $4,000 one bedroom inventory is a fascinating set, and one that I love exploring. $4,000 - $5,000, incidentally, is exactly the point where one should consider just buying a place, because the cost of rent at that level is equal to what a mortgage and maintenance payment would be.
This is an 1,100 square foot one bedroom with a terrace on 55th Street right off First Avenue. Leafy Sutton at its best. It has two full baths, two walk in closets, a chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances -- all in a white glove doorman building.
