    New York City Building Code requires a studio apartment to be 150 square feet (with a functioning kitchen and bathroom). This is an illegal "apartment". The building owner will probably get a hefty fine for this illegal apartment.

    Legally it's NOT an apartment. It's an SRO.
    It's illegal to list this as an apartment in NYC.
    A legal apartment in NYC, MUST BE 150sq ft for a NEW renovated or built space.
    Not included in the 150sq ft, you need a full kitchen (legally stove, sink, cabinet and fridge).
    Not included in the 150sq ft, you need a bathroom in unit (legally a sink, toilet and shower).
    If one of these is not included, it's an ILLEGAL apartment.
    If you have a bedroom (not included in the 150sq ft), it must be at least 80 sq ft and MUST HAVE a full sized window for egress.

    There should be a federal law that affects all 50 states. No bathroom, no running water, not an apartment. Especially these days. Are you supposed to use a chamber pot and throw it out the window? Most states say that all bedrooms must have an egress window. So all apartments must have minimum 3 piece bathrooms even if it doesn't have a kitchen.

    • @SheilaR.08
      @SheilaR.08 Рік тому +13

      There is an egress window. And it's a room rental, with shared bathrooms down the hall. It's the average price of a room for rent in someone's house where I am, and I'm in a much cheaper area than NYC. Guessing most bring a microwave and mini fridge, and eat out a lot, which is quite common there.

      It's not an apartment, it's a boarding house. I've seen them advertised before, and they don't say apartment, they say "room". No one really lives in these in NYC other than students or people here for temporary internships. They use the bathroom down the hall and eat out or at their school's dining hall.
      It could be worth it for someone who doesn't know people they want to share a standard apartment with, and doesn't want to have a long commute to class from an outer borough where they could afford their own regular studio.

    Little Sam saved up enough money to buy an apartment in New York, but upon entering, he realized how tiny it was. All he could do was sleep on his jacket. Not even his girlfriend wanted to move in with him. Shortly afterwards, he got fed up and remodeled it like this: First, he welded galvanized square steel and borrowed expansion screws from his auntie and attached it to the wall. Then, he wrapped it in eco-friendly wood veneer and put a soft mattress on top. Then, he made a hole in the wall next to the bed for convenient phone charging. He also added soft padding for comfortable sleep. Then, he added a ladder to gain climbing skills when going to his bed. *He bumps his head.* He also added a projector so that he could watch movies in his bed with his girlfriend after getting back from work. Under the bed, he added a wardrobe to the left for hanging infrequently used clothes. Then, he placed a table, serving as his study area, along with some bookshelves above. There is even more space when you move the chair. *Chair moves out of the apartment and is never seen again.* Then, he added a induction stove and a mini fridge, serving as a mini kitchen. Then, he added a toilet that burns the crap out of your poop, meaning Sam won’t have to use any toilet paper. He also added a shower top above the toilet, meaning he can experience hell invading his butt and trying to invade the USSR in the winter at the same time. He also added see-through doors and walls around the shower and toilet. At the end, look at this room, perfecting the art of space usage. *Little Sam walks through some walls.*

The "bed" was a mattress I had to push up against the wall when I wasn't sleeping. One bathroom per floor and no kitchens. Showers only on even number floors. OFC I was on floor 3. I'm tiny and I was worried about falling thru the creaky wooden steps some missing a plank.

    In the old days, single adults on their own commonly rented in a rooming house. It was called "renting a room". Now NYC calls them an "apartment" & charges you through the nose. But if it has no kitchen or bathroom, its $1200/mo for a ROOM.
