It's been a busy week since I started at a new brokerage. My first order of business has been to check out the inventory, since it's been a month since I've been in the game. Also, when I left Citi Habitats I forgot to take all the photos I'd collected over the past two years, which was a huge over sight.

Yesterday I found what I think is the best deal on a studio I have ever seen. It's a 550 square foot alcove studio with tons of natural light, in a doorman/elevator building. Everything is new, including the kitchen. There is also a separate dressing room, in addition to the ample closets in the entryway. And it's only $1615, NO FEE. Photos below, full specs here.
