INSIDE a Tiny NYC Apartment (90 Square feet)

The fact that this walk in closet is $1233 a month...

Am I the only one who has never lived in NYC, has no intentions of living in NYC, and yet is strangely drawn to Cash's apartment tours?

For $1200 there should be a built-in loft that you can sleep in, with stairs, not an oversized shelf. I don't know why, but I love seeing the tiny apartments more than I like seeing the massive ones.

The amount of positive spins on this apartment are hysterical. "Five flights of stairs = free gym membership"

Size, tiny. Rent, costly. Location, busy. Every single apocalyptic scenario ever, priceless.

"And it would be right next to the door" - Cash, everything is right next to the door...

Here is when imagination comes into the picture. :) For some, that apartment would be a palace, for others, a coat closet. I say, as long as you have a place to lay your head at the end of the day, that's home. :)

this is a crime. just proves that landlords are criminals and yet someone will rent it. love you Jordan.

I always wanted a refrigerator in my living room/bedroom, lol. This is a prison and the rent should be no more than $500 a month.

This isn't an apartment: it's a dare.

The bathroom is so huge compared to the main living room. Gosh, I really like how he shows us the neighborhood. Living in France it's like a small journey in NY every time I watched one of his videos. Thank you so much.

Slow cooker is the best thing in the world. Chili, meatballs, chicken breasts, soups. Small place, it is truly the best thing. Also, nothing beats have a place of your own. No roommates! Can set the heat or a/c to temp of your choice, nobody else to get in your way. Cash is so cute. Love his style. Model right there. Has a very lucky wife and adorable little daughter

I could totally make that small apartment work. Just look how people live in vans build things out and use that as a blueprint for furnishing that apartment.

Always enjoy these apartment viewings! NOW -- one recommendation -- from someone who's lived in Manhattan for 45 years -- living in a tiny apartment like this for a good 10 years prior to graduating to a 1 bedroom, a sofa bed is the ideal way to go for a studio! Having a loft bed would make the place insufferably small and claustrophobic -- be able to treat the space by day as a living area, and by night as bedroom, opening up the sofa bed. It worked fine for me that way -- having friends over -- they're in a living room. At night, opening up the sofa bed, you're in your bedroom. As far as I'm concerned, this is what made NYC life just fine!

Honestly that place would be significantly more functional if it didn’t have any of those shelves and you could put up your own but the crepes at that crepe place downstairs are so freaking good

My ideas are: 1. Pedestal sink storage cabinet. 2. Redo the bathroom: Switch the toilet and shower areas. 3. A rolling ladder for the mini loft that is situated over the kitchen sink/cabinetry area: Telescopic Vertically Stored Steel Sliding Rolling Library Ladder Hardware Track Kit. 4. Compact Refridgerator Mini Fridge with Freezer (to replace that larger fridge). 5.Portable Mini Fridge Organizer to place the microwave and mini fridge with freezer on. 6. Ductless Heating and Cooling System (this system is placed on a upper wall--instead of the heating systems on the lower wall/floor and in the window) for more space capacity. 7. Pullout sectional couch which converts to a bed. 8 and 9. A table folding desk (mostly for dining); and a floating desk (for paperwork purposes); both to be placed along the wall near the entry door. 10. Folding and stackable storage drawer organizer 11. Closet Basket shelf storage bins. (These would be in the loft area). 12. Clothes rack with a canvas cover (this item would have wheels). 13. A dresser that could also serve partially as an entertainment center (i.e., a Soho type dresser). 14. Remove that shelf that is over the microwave. 15. Put an adjustable aluminum window screen in the window. 16. Mini blinds for the window as well. 17. Even though the location is where it is, (McDougal Street, Manhattan, NYC), and because there is no formal kitchen, the list price for this apartment should be about $1060 a month. Just sayin'.

Usually these glorified bedrooms don't have their own bathroom so that's a plus. 😬

I live in London but NYC is a different planet:) In London room is a room, in NYC room is an apartment.

favorite quote "next to the kitchen...."

I’m pretty sure I know this apartment. Years ago (years and years ago) I worked at Panchitos across the street. I knew several people in that building and was so jealous that they were right there in the center of everything. I couldn’t have cared less about the size. Priorities change.
