  • Would you rent an apartment in NYC’s Chinatown that Nobody’s ever lived in? Thats what people who see today’s apartment(s) are faced with… and nobody’s said yes yet. I wonder whats keeping these apartments in one of Lower Manhattan’s coolest neighborhoods vacant?

    Born and raised in NYC/Brooklyn from 1940-1966. Owners of these buildings were mom and pop investors - rents were very low - and they kept the apartment buildings clean. The landlord actually came out to ur apartment to collect the rent. Today, the RICH own us - and they could dice-up a 2 bedroom into a mini-4-bedroom and charge $$$$$$$$$$$$$. They're very connected - that's why they call a windowless room a bedroom. My downstairs bedroom is 11'x12'. CASH calls this size bedroom "a good size." I call my downstairs bedroom "SMALL." Those mini-kitchens where there's no room for a table - what the heck!!!!

    Cash, the weird mechanical unit in the closets are combi boilers, or tankless water heaters as I believe they are called in the states. They are far more energy efficient than the massive water heaters that are typical in the States. Normally, in the UK, they are a lot tidier than that, in face one of those seemed to have the piping spread out far more than neccessary, and they are usually boxed in. Most people have them in their kitchens in the UK. They give hot water on demand and are great if you have roommates or a large family because everyone can shower without running out of hot water. I have no idea why they've taken so long to become more mainstream in the States. Nearly every where I've lived in the UK for the last 23 years has had one.

    • @SuzanneWho
      @SuzanneWho ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Xzavier: We’re starting to see tankless heaters gain popularity but industry is still touting the old tank water heaters. Also, what they charge for installation is usually pretty high considering the basic simplicity of installation. Europe and Asia are ahead of us on efficiency and quality. A similar situation is our RV industries - lousy construction, cheap materials, poor design etc.

    Unit #1: For $7,000/month you get several flights of stairs to walk up, a very small kitchen and a very, very small living area, miniscule closets and a cramped bathroom to share. Yes, there is laundry, and a rooftop deck to retreat to when you run out of air in that small apartment. Unit #2 is apparently a two bedroom, and since one of the rooms is for vampires it should list for a much lower price. I'll reserve judgment on the two unfinished ones, but the $9,000 alleged 4-bedroom apartment may only have two legal bedrooms. One in the cellar has no window (a clear violation) and the other's "window" is accessed by a grate in the outside deck, probably not an adequate egress. Aren't there any inspectors for these places? (BTW, those mysterious units in the closets are your heat/hot water boilers, so you're paying for that.)
    The apartments that Charles showed us have reasonable kitchens and overall much more square footage. They're pricey, and I wouldn't pay that much for a sixth-floor walkup, but they are better apartments otherwise - excluding the possibility of damage to slammed appliance doors.

      Eventually cars won't even have windows. Just cameras and monitors that deliver a reasonable facsimile of reality. Power goes out? Oh well, that's life in the big city.

    I definitely liked the two Charles Munroe apartments the best. The kitchen in the first of his two was better because it had a gas range rather than electric (do you make anything besides coffee?).
    Re: the "four bedroom" apartment, can that one room legally be a "bedroom" with no windows? I'd be afraid to use that room for anything but storage. I'd also imagine that the pricier apartments with more bedrooms would be harder to rent out because you either have to line up enough people who can pay or make enough money to live there...and if you made that kind of money, you'd probably be looking to buy a place rather than rent.

    The boxes in the closet with the pipes are European water heaters, it’s more efficient than keeping a tank full of water and constantly reheating it, instead it’s able to sense that you want hot water, and it will almost instantly heat up the water running through it. Plus it’s safer since it won’t blow a gasket and flood your apartment after 10-15 years.
