damn $6,000 is insane
it is
Not in the Manhattan market for a 2BR it's not. There's a lot of people here that can easily afford to pay their $3000 share of that quite easily.
Ikr!! She got lucky!! What a steal!
america is weird
This is insane to me as someone who pays 850 per person (1700 total) in Chicago
I lived in the East Village for 30 years. I met my husband at a club there and did my internship/residency there. My apartment was like yours with a lot of light and I saw the Empire State, Chrysler buildings as well as the WWC's from my top floor walk-up. When I first moved there in 1991, the community was so small that people would say, "Yeah, you're the new girl in town" lol. Paid $1800 for a one bedroom in the end before Jared Kushner bought us out and turned the units into dormitories for young Wall Streeters in 2011. Still worked in the EV until the pandemic. Now I'm a country girl within striking distance of NYC and Dual Spice Shop on First Ave... one of my favorite haunts. Thanks for a glimpse of your lovely life!
Ah so amazing! Thanks for sharing your memories of this special neighborhood 🥹
Elena - you have carved out such a beautiful life for yourself!! Being in your twenties, living in NYC, in the East Village no less in a gorgeous apt w/laundry!! Halleluiah! I have seen many of your videos here on YT & have always enjoyed your content. Love design, decor & seeing how people arrange their homes. So much fun!! It was so special getting to see where you live! I am in my fifties & live 25 mins outside of the city - pretty much my whole life. And though I never lived in NYC - it's always been a simple train ride away which I have always appreciated. Many of my friends lived in NYC in their twenties while still single & no kids & have all been so thankful for the opportunity...which was a plus for me cuz I always had a place to stay over! I wish you good health & fun as you continue your wonderful career & journey enjoying all that NYC has to offer!!
What beautiful and inviting space. So excited for you and your next chapter Elena🌸✨
Aw thank you so much!
Akira is actually a movie and u should watch it because it’s really good and blew my mind. You definitely don’t need to be into anime to watch it! It’s a cult classic and was very revolutionary to the point it inspired a whole wave of cyberpunk/sci fi media (even in America). Even if you’re not into that kind of stuff, it’s an excellent movie and probably one of the best to come out of Japan (warning, it is very intense so be in the right mindset to watch it) 🥰
Like you're apt perk of going up to roof is nice . Eye color amazing . Thank you Elena been watching you're videos helps me escape mentally and travel spiritually.
A truly iconic apartment!
I’ve been following you since your CA era and it is amazing your growth, such and inspiration 🤍 love from southern spain 🫶🏻
Wow your apartment is absolutely beautiful! You really are living the absolute dream in NYC 🤍 I loved the creative vibes of the East Village when I was visiting NYC & your apartment fits the vibes SO well!! Also your outfit in this vid is stunning 🖤
I love your DIY art! 🖤
Beautiful apartment! So cozy. I’ve been journaling since I was 10. I always joke that the journals will have to be buried with me. Too many secrets.
Very cozy apartment Elena! Thank you for sharing books from living table - are awesome.
Such a gorgeous space!!! I love thisss
aw thanks brandon!
Few things ..
1. Would love to see your book collection plz plz I've been waiting for it for so long ..
2. Would love a reel or short video on your perfume collection.
3. Maybe you can start a series of your fav cafes , places etc etc of East Village and Newyork..it would be really cool and helpful.
4. I've asked this before plz share the area and rent situation etc of Sage ,your sister because like her I'm also moving to Newyork and really like the area she lives in ..plz it would be really helpful...like the expenses,things to consider before moving there ❤
I don't know about everyone else, but I would love a book recommendation video! (especially one that highlights non-western authors or maybe just lesser known authors that don't normally get a platform)
Uncarley has given some great recommendations in a few of her videos, also, for lesser known authors and non-fiction, Venetia La Manna always helps me widen my horizons! ❤
@@philippawood5047 Oooh thank you! checking out their channels now!
There was one book she should "i who have never known men" i very rarely rate books five stars but i still think about the ending and its been six months since ive read it
Your home is beautiful.👍🥰
I live near by and I always wondered what the duplexes you live in look like. They are so unassuming from the front but its such a great layout!
I lived most of my life in Southern California, but the last 14 years in Idaho. I've been collecting matchbooks for over 30 years😊
Your apartment is so clean and cute! It was nice to see your place after watching your channel and seeing so many others. And a nice surprise to find that your a tall girly like me! Go off 6'1 sis!! I would've never guessed. Also -- you should definitely check out Akira, its a little freaky but definitely a gorgeously designed and animated film. Keep doing your fly thing Elena :))
love love love
Living the dream...my dream... the only thing I don't like is the idea of a roommate...not my cup of tea but for 6000$ yes, you'd better have one!
Beautiful apartment and huge space for nyc! Given the rental prices this is actually very reasonable 😊
Watching you all the way from Durban, South African ❤️ love your content
I’m so proud of you 👍 🎉 follower since 2019 I seen you growing and glowing through years ❤ love from india 🇮🇳
aw thank you!!!
i put this on in the background before I study
An honor to be sitting next to you as this goes live 🫡
hi my love
best coworking buddy 🫡
A beautiful Lebanese woman like you can't be living in this house alone. If you need a Lebanese husband I'll prepare my visa and on my way.
@@user-wh6fw2id9nwomen don’t NEED husbands
Yay!! ❤
Your place is beautiful. So spacious. Enjoy.
Have you ever been to Melbourne, Australia? It’s where I’m from and not saying it’s anywhere comparable but I feel like in a way it’s Australia’s New York. It’s so cultural, and beautiful and unique in its own right and similar in the way one night you could be at the theatre and the next you’re at some secret underground bar or club. I love it so much. You should visit one day! xx
Nice apartment tour on this video
Great place.
Where'd you get your dining table & bench from? 😍
Wait I peeped ur kitchen backsplash and I'd like to know more about it! What is it made of? It almost has a stainless steel vibe.
So clutch. Gag.
Cute apartment, but damn $6k for the East Village is crazy.
this is nyc these days 😭😭
@@ElenaTaberstop with the emojis you’re rich
$3,000 for her half of the apartment is pretty standard if you want to live in Manhattan. There are probably 1.5 million people paying $3000 rent in Manhattan.
Amazing! Where's the bedside table from?
Oh wow Elena - you look soooo awesome in the cowboy hat! It leads to an inner you;)
once again New York , we had that before , didn’t we ❤️
where is your dress and belt from? its soooo cute
Is your front door on the street or is there a vestibule?
Where do you get your planters? I also have a birds of paradise and I am looking for a new planter.
How do you cook in the kitchen when the AC is on in the living area?
I love your outfit! Where’s it from?
How did you find this apartment? 3k split is soo good in the city.
I miss my old apt in the EV then had to leave and head toward the UES after our COVID deal was up. Honestly it's crazy how much apartments in the area are going for now :/
It’s insane how much it’s gone up 😅
Where is your outfit from? So cute xx
When I saw the second bedroom I burst out laughing! Wow what a contrast between the two, maximalism vs minimalism. Which do you prefer?
I think her roommate is a model who travels a lot 🤷♀
how does someone afford this
good question..
TH-cam, apparently
TH-cam $$$
Rich parents, sugar daddies
@@Imjoseguzman hahaha 😂 accurate
Come on, you know you bought those cassettes a few months back after watching "Perfect Days". 😀
Elenaa 😃
do you have any broker or real estate agent recommendations? this apartment is an amazing find!
Where is the bed side table from? The wood and glass one?
OMG It is so darling!
the cassette tape display is really cute
such fun memories!
So she have returned to NYC after Paris and all those travels? Found herself after all?
Wow living in the U.K. , it’s shocking that a years rent for you could buy you a small flat here 😮 3 years rent and you could buy a house , lovely flat though 🥰x
Come on, not in London!
You will miss New York. Especially during Christmas time.
long time no see elena😊
she's back!
01:46 Nicee!
wow great video!!!!
thank you!
Beautiful apartment! does your roommate water your plants when you’re traveling? Lol
The corruption that runs through this administration is getting scarier. I feel for people with disabilities who are not getting the help they deserve. Anyone who is not investing now is missing a tremendous opportunity. Imagine investing $2,000 and receiving $10,300.
My main concern now is how can we generate more revenue during quantitative times? I can't afford to see my 401k crumble to dust
I think Lewis howes strategy is the best at the moment, I recommend it for beginners because it is perfect for now and it is known.
Yeah, since meeting expert Lewis, I now agree that with an expert managing your portfolio, the rate of profit high, with less risk.
You're right! The very first time I tried, I invested $1000 and after a week, I received $4800. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.
How do I contact Lewis???, my 401k needs diversification
love from nepal😊😊😊stay your one time life happily wherever you are love from peaceful country nepal😉😊😊
Very nice in general. Change the lousy sofa, unless you don't use it and your guests are all giants. Fire comes out of a wooden countertop? super random posters above bed? nah.
Oh man, what is that desk? Model??!
nice
You can draw a couple of eyes and a nose on that lamp and make it a lampman.
Can we get a jewellery video!
I feel crazy saying this but 6k for this in lower manhattan is kinda good
Foreign policy and corporate elites once lived in different worlds. Now they're intermingling,...diplomats and celebrities are mixing with philosophers.
top interior, top books! I am sure we would be friends if we would live close together :D!
She's 6'1??? Thought she was tall, but that was surprising
YOURE SIX ONE? Didnt see that one coming lmao.
Program activated. New word: clutch. 🙄
weren't you living in Paris?? Or was that just being a tourist for 3 months and making a big deal out of it for views
just a note: collecting matchbooks is something I've been doing for decades here in Iowa, from local places and from travels around the country and the world :D Not just a NY thing!
I don’t 6G worth of anything to pay that kinda money.
Your roommate literally owns nothing
Haha she had just moved out as when’re at the end of our lease!
6k that's outrageous, the east village isn't that nice or great.
Please stop saying clutch.
I hope my channel gets to the point of being able to afford this. Btw idk if you’re into nyc vlogs but if so, you might like mine! I’d be sooo grateful if you swung by and took a peek. 🙏 Stick around if you like!
Just checked, nice content! Also, your hair is absolutely gorgeous 😮
@@philippawood5047 omg thank you! and thank you for coming by my channel!
I'm iranian, I really enjoyed seeing the book سرزمین ما ایران❤😍
I want to be your neighbor))
You know you can stay in my heart for free with $6 budget of $2.50 colt 45 and $3.50 shot of booz daily
$6,000 a month is way ridiculous even with a roommate, so either you have a rich daddy who pays your half of the rent or you're a brain surgeon.
You really rock that outfit. Your legs are flattering in it.
Just get a damn house at this point
Why. To be locked into the “American dream” She travels and lives in great cities. That is life
Is the extra commuting by train worth it?
@@TheLewistownTrainspotter8102 Commuting where? To the office where she works at? :D
I don’t understand that if they can afford to pay this much in rent why they are not buying. Maybe not right here, close enough though. No one can tell me that they cannot afford to. This is ridiculous, making someone else rich while throwing $72,000 a year just basically down the drain.
I’ve never understood how this country embraces the idea of renting anyway. No one should have to pay another rent. Just an insane concept. This woman is akin to a wealthy serf. Ridiculous.
Saving up enough money for a down payment while paying rent is nearly impossible in a super expensive city like NYC. It’s not like you can get a mortgage for $3k as a down payment… especially not in cities that have more c competitive markets. I live in NYC. If you’re a single person it’s super hard to save for a house and pay rent.
Open Door with Elena Taber 🤍
That’s some insane amount of money but the place is pretty pretty 🫶🏻
