Living In The Roughest Apartment In NYC…

- This apartment looks like it’s been caught in a gang-related territorial dispute, but perhaps its a bad idea to judge a book by its cover… especially in Manhattan New York City.

I was more impressed with the train station and the farmers market than the apartment.
Agree, that train station was WAY COOL.
@@josephgaviota wasn't it? I worked in that area and didn't even know about that station! I always took the express bus 🤣🤣
Station was beautiful!
What station is that? Is it 28th st?
Oh my…
You lost me at 6th floor walkup, and the graffiti clinched it. They installed the washer and dryer because the previous tenant died of a heart attack lugging their laundry up and down the stairs, or maybe they fell down those dangerous stairs to the small roof deck. The kitchen is tiny and the living area is cramped. The "balcony" has just space for a table or a chair, but not both. For this someone who makes upward of $160,000 is going to pay $4,000/month? Not in my world.
I so agree.
The bathroom in the kitchen for me.
Only in America . . will you see this theft, of services ! 💀 😈
Totally agree, no way you could survive lugging furniture up 6 flights of stairs.
@@sandyj479 good luck hiring a mover who will willingly schlep furniture up those stairs
6th floor walk up would be a nightmare to move into. Just getting groceries would be a workout. The condition of the building with no security for 4k is a joke.
and would anyone deliver up there? No .. probably have to meet them downstairs in your robe and undies .. sigh
U can get a house for cheaper
I am so glad I live in a quiet small town in Texas!!
The actual apartment is a lot nicer than I expected it to be, but man not having an elevator really sucks.
Imagine hefting 2 gallons of water up 6 flights just 4 drinking water
I mean even a pulley system would work for me. Send me up like a bucket.
i mean unless your litterally in a wheel chair not really a problem. get a little exercise every morning.
Did anyone else think that Cash locked himself out on the roof when he let the door close ? Phew.
That subway stop looked so freaking cool! Gotta love the architecture
That is the first location of Madison Square Garden. NY Life held the mortgage and took over the space when MSG moved.
It's called European architecture. Manhattan was once rife with it
And the rats
A washer/dryer reveal is always a jaw dropper for me, especially in a walk up.
Right! A dishwasher too?! Richy Rich
While this is a nice enough apartment, a 5th floor walk up shouldn't be $4,000 even with the roof, balcony and laundry.
Can you imagine trying to move heavy furniture up those stairs?
@@daddygrace253 I can barely imagine lugging groceries up those stairs
@@jennifertarin4707 it's pain in the @ss walking up 4 floors
@@jennifertarin4707 People used to do hard labor and walk higher than this. But I guess they weren't as unfit as now.
@@jennifertarin4707 😀 😃 😄 😁 😆 😅 😂 🤣
The perfect renter for this place would be a mountain goat!
Lol 😆 🤣 😂
A NYC landlord will rent to one. Shieeet if they have good credit and income.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No thank you; I wouldn't move into a building without an elevator. I cannot imagine trying to move furniture up those stairs to that tiny apartment. The place is not secure. The door to get to the roof has glass and a burglar can break the glass and enter this unit. I am a native New York City resident born and raised since 1955 living on the upper Westside of Manhattan.
Me moving to a New York apartment with a rat problem, wall problems, the neighborhood being ghetto, having no elevators, just stairs that sometimes had homeless people living in the basement, and I see a “ native “ complaining having no elevators. 💀
Pivot, PIVOT
when I saw how many stairs, it got me thinking about what it's like to be a mover in NYC. I don't envy them at all. 🤣
@@locabynature It must not be fun 💀 but in other parts of New York there are worse apartments than what he shows so being a mover in this apartment is not fun but there are worse 😭
@@dnut5445 People shouldn't rent these chopped up apartments - with no room to move around or breathe!!! And that graffiti - WOW!!!
It amazes me what landlords can get into a small space
There is no way I’d want to climb all those stair’s everyday.
I love watching your videos. I live in rural midwest and could never live in NYC or any city. I’m amazed at the small places people make into the coziest homes. I’ll hold down the country and you hold down the city. ☺️
Lol I love your comment I'ma hold down the desert here in Phoenix lol
I feel sorry for people who are forced to pay rents for places like this.
Me too Barbara ridiculous 🤦🏾♀️
No one is: everything in life is a choice…
Don’t. Probably trust fund kids. Who else?
Where do you live? Do you have access to the amenities New York city offers.
It’s still a choice. The gentrification has driven out the natives. That’s the sad part, not a bunch of rich kids having their parents paying their rents.
I'm fascinated by NYC, and I think it would be interesting to live there for 1 year. I would be ok in one of these weird tiny apartments, I see it as part of the experience. But for now, as a man in my late 30s with a wife and kids, I'd rather pay a mortgage and all of my bills for the price of just renting there.. I enjoy watching these videos because I doubt I'll ever get to see it for myself haha.
One of the most unpleasant cities in the US. I'll never go back.
@@blueeyedwolf2205 Ehh. It's not that bad. Geeze, have you ever been to High Point (NC) or Gary (IN). NYC is a rose compared to that shit.
@@tzaraslaysart Gary is so depressing
@@GoldHamSam Truth! But at least they have/had Freddie Gibbs.
@@tzaraslaysart I would never go to those places for any reason, ever. I've been to NYC, so I've actually seen it up close. Awful place.
It tast very very healthy. Nice way to avoid saying that it does not tast good.
Great apartment for those that want to lose weight----------walking up and down those 6 flights of stairs is not just great exercise but Tiring as hell. I would offer the landlord 2,000 a month---take it or leave it.
Lmao very true. Even though I am a disabled senior citizen, I deliberately chose a 3rd floor walkup to move to when my lease was up on my ground floor apartment. I knew it would keep me moving, and I 've dropped 3 sizes since I moved in. It made me very selective about what I am willing to carry up those stairs.
$2,000 is still too much
i don’t need an apartment, but you are just so darn entertaining i love watching. keep up the great vids
Same for me! He is really good!
14th.street market is so awesome. Native New Yorkers love your videos as much as out of towners . These spaces are unique but so expensive. Thanks for giving us 6 days of content .
Omg 😱
"Unique" is an apt descrition
I was pleasantly surprised as well. The in-unit laundry is always a game changer but the place is still too expensive.
I wish they built out the top of the stairs to put in an extra bedroom or something. The view from that top window is nice and it’s a waste of vertical space to not have that!!!
At that price with the six flights of stairs without an elevator and the graffiti, I’ll have to pass too!
Yesterday we were at Dominique Ansel Bakery, sat outside & were entertained by a 77 year old man. Robert sang us a song & told us a couple of jokes, at 8 in the morning! Only in NYC. Great weekend at the Arlo in Nomad.
As a New Yorker, if someone did that to me at 8 in the morning, I'd be right pissed off.
Nah, you have winos in every city
Funny how you mention a pedestal sink as if it's a feature and not the cheapest option available in the 40ies.
I think you would need to rig a basket on a pulley system to get your coffee/wine etc up to that roof deck. Imagine trying to climb that staircase with stuff in your hands.
You’d have to have the agility and balance of a mountain goat!
This is exactly what I was thinking right before I read your post! Great minds think alike!
I'm trying to imagine going back down those stairs after a couple drinks!
Especially after a few drinks!
@@annefresia2102 I think I'd install a fireman's pole. Would be easier, even drunk, than negotiating that staircase.
$4K/month isn't too bad given the unit and its location. but nope... The daily climbing up those flights of stairs to reach the aerie would become old REAL quick! This is a unit of which once you're up in the nest you're in for the night and won't be seen until the following day, or even days later.
& those stairs up to the roof... no way. Cash even said they're really steep & you have to hold on. All that to reach what is really part of a shared roof
Not too bad...until you look up what the median income is of the average NYC renter...$53k.
$4K/month is borderline criminal.
Oddly, I love the extra, hidden storage at the top… I’ve recently started watching your videos and it seems most places have little room for storage. 🙌🏻
You should be an appliance door tester! If the doors survive you slamming them, they are good! 😂
He slams everything ha
My husband and I had a good laugh. I think the selling point you should be stressing is that the apartment was designed by the Marquis de Sade.
😄
I'm thinking you go up to the roof and have drinks...and then can't navigate the stairs to go down!
I see why there are so many New York transplants in central VA. What’s the use in having things open all hours of the night, if after schlepping up 7 flights, you’re too tired to enjoy it.
The exposed brick, the spiral stairs, the skylights, the balcony and the roof deck were really cool.
I dig the apartment. A small, yet doable living/dining room, an “interesting” entrance right into the tiny kitchen, a nice bedroom, laundry, and a great rooftop area. My only concern is how to move furniture into that walk up. No need for a gym membership when living there at least.
Ikea furniture. Everyone in places like this have mostly Ikea stuff.
BIG thumbs up for your Casey-style dedication to getting the shots! Extra stairs you took to leave the camera then walk back towards it again - the skinny closet, in & out extra times!!
Amazing as always, Cash. Wayching your channel makes me want to move to NYC so bad!!!
Also, it seems that you forgot to choose the two videos in the end of this video!
Thank you!!
Looks better than 90% of the apartments I see in São Paulo, Brazil. It's interesting seeing places in NY because even when they look their worse, they are never quite as bad as apartments I've seen my whole life in large cities that are not in the global north.
How do apartments in Philly or Baltimore compare? They’re a lot more tore up looking
I giggled watching Cash get in the closet. Made my shoulders hurt too 🤣
I really feel like he might get stuck one day
@@femmebrulee5053 He just might with these nyc apartments
No. Just No. I wouldn't make it past the trashy graffiti, so I definitely wouldn't climb all those stairs. But, laundry in unit is nice. I feel bad for the construction and renovation workers who had to haul all those appliances up there!
Laundry closet! Yes! I'm always amazed and impressed at how small NYC apartments just make it work. Cute lil spot!
Oh heck yeah! Totally worth the walk up, exercise is a good thing anyway. Great neighborhood, and 2 outdoor areas ♥
Safer to go to the gym.
I'm very surprised. I lived in nomad for eight years in the 80's and it never looked so bad.
That skinny closet is ridiculous! Why didn't they open it to the other side? I know it's hard to judge distances via video, but it seems it could be a coat closet beside the entry door with twice the usable space.
laughing in european about the missing elevator. be grateful for the free workout!
That's not a staircase that's a ladder
🔨🔨🔨🔨 Chipotle 😆😆😆😆……though I could never afford to live in NY, I watch for the views you give us and support it all with your GREAT humor Cash!
Love the farmer market. But no to the apartment. That stairs is killing me
Cool rooftop area! Lots of places to go near this one. Just gotta be careful at night.
Thank you Mister Cash - I enjoy your vids & I do watch a lot of 'em even tho I'm pretty sure I'm not coming back to NY - I'm living on The Vineyard now - yeah that Vineyard: MV - next stop for me South Sumatra < yeah THAT Sumatra, the one on the opposite side of the planet, 6° south of the Equator with the world's best surfing & average daily temperature of 85° F all year-round... But, yeah, I enjoy your apartment tours - I'm glad I lived in NY & I'm also glad that I escaped. DO carry on!
Beautiful, elegant and cozy!
your videos push me to dive into getting my art to sell more,
so that I can live in a beautiful place similar to this,
the views at night...I would love to see what these places look like at nigh :)
*you could do that, right?
Seriously though....thank you for being a muse and for such adventures,
I miss both Japan and NYC, your videos are sincerely soul medicine!
Apartment was cool I guess and I like the vibe of the video music and footage really good 👍🏽 Thx
What a great deal😮❤! So many neat features!
Greetings CJ This is 4 Sure Gonna b so Good🔥🔥🔥👍….
This was one of my favourite ones. So nice!
Love the neighborhood. And this place is not bad. Pretty unique with the rooftop deck and the cool skylights in the living room. Someone could turn it into quite the little gem! Thanks again for all the work put into your vids. Must be tough sampling the food in the hood! 😄
“Free cable, without having to pay.”
Climbing into a tiny closet. You kill me. 😆
I'm loving that space, it's so much bigger with more light and appliances than any place that I have ever lived
"It tastes really, really healthy", didn't seem to say it tastes really, really good.
Squeezing into the closet was comedy gold, Cash, comedy gold. 😆
First allow me to ask what is it with these apt buildings that are 500 floor walk ups and no elevators. Aww heck no!
I noticed when you ate the cookie that you didn't say really really tasty! Love the channels stay awesome!
"It taste really, really healthy". Cash secretly spit it out!
That was the comedy gold, Jerry, I mean Cash, I actually LOLLED. But not on the floor. I liked the place. It was an apt apt. for the Big Apple. STOP.
That's my telegram. STOP.
let's be honest, how many of us would just store our dirty clothes in the washer and our clean clothes in the dryer?
6 floor walk up, not even if it was $500.00
Love watching these videos ..... makes me glad that I live where I do and don’t have to live in that crap.
Oh yes, soooo thankful ..
I can't believe people live in these places a pay that much rent. Glad I live in the Midwest.🙏
I've been meaning to say how much I like your thumbnails-with the small pop of yellow that you add to match the yellow in your pfp. I know it's your video without even reading the headline.👍
Nice one Jordan.
the more i watch these the more i realise that i may not have it in me. yeah, i don't think nyc is for me...
Great apartment tour!
Your squeeze into the skinny closet 🤣🤣🤣, but I always appreciate sink separating bathtub from toilet bc I can't relax in tub with my head next to or staring at toilet.
When he was stuck in the closet I was waiting to hear him say help me step brother I'm stuck. 🤣🤣
I would not live there if you paid me! It's a million flights up and the building is covered with graffiti! Next!
Came back from NY,last week Your video showed a couple of places I visited 😊 my next visit will include that cool subway entrance. I liked the apartment, especially the exposed brick wall and the roof deck. Nothing would be better than watching the sun rise, with coffee and a bagel.
oh yas another free gym membership!
Who held the camera when you did your drive by scene on your bike?
There are several comments about the asking price. To me, the washer/dryer in unit & the private roof deck makes it worth it. And the apt is in pristine condition. However, since the rooms are so cramp, I would definitely recommend furnishing this living space with a minimalist point of view. Great video tour.
i can't believe landlords can get away with charging 4k for an apartment like this..
that's my old neighborhood. was there 21+ years. yes, the 6 is the only train but it's only 1 stop south to 14th st - with every train avail. plus the 23rd st. crosstown bus is a breeze.
That cookie you ate "it tastes healthy "🤣🤣 nice apartment!
This really makes me appreciate my farmhouse. I have a five bed, two bath, 3500sq ft home that has beautiful hardwood floors, french doors, fireplace, and acreage for $1200/month WITH utilities in central Illinois. 🤷🏻♀️ I could never pay that much for a place smaller than my bedroom. I don't know why people conform to these outrageous prices.
i would never...how do u shop for food and no elevator for 4k ....... insanity but i love the videos n view
Nice place ! Love it !
I feel bad for the appliance delivery guys who had to delivery that stuff. Nightmare to move furniture into there.
I bet you could do something interesting with the skylight space, a suspended platform on pulleys or something.
I luv your sense of humor
NYC had a capitol on getting anything you want delivered for the last 70 years...just now the rest of the country has Instacart. It took a while. That is why people can do a lot of stairs. NYC is a walking city. People in general are more fit. Heck, you have to do a lot of stairs just to leave the subway.
That plug for the Amazon hoodie was cool. When you squeezed in the closet I felt kinda tight. 😅
The layout and skylight reminds me of the apartment in the 1968 Jane Fonda and Robert Redford film Barefoot in the Park.
I didn't get past the steps, whew. I was in a 3rd floor walk-up and that was bad enough. Hey, not everybody has a problem with steps, but you'd have to have some really good close friends to help you move your furniture into that place. I remember Macy's coming to my 3rd floor walk-up and they were not happy at all. The steps aren't the problem with furniture, it's turning the stuff at the landing that's really the problem. It's kind of cute but the terrace is really useless and the rooftop, no privacy. All kinds of locks on the roof door, but it's glass, so locks really are useless. I could see students in this apt, two at the most. It's not horrible, actually it's kind of cute.
$4k for that part of Manhattan isn't bad and I, personally, am not bothered by the graffiti. It's also very common for apartments in NYC to not have elevators. But I'll say at $4k those stairs look dangerous/pretty sure there are codes saying stairs have to be a certain depth, but this landlord must have found a work around. Additionally, at this price in NYC, often to make up for the lack of elevator there'd be in unit laundry. The situation is very much in unit laundry or elevator, but never both. This one sucks for having neither.
You had me at Life Changing Bacon
With the New York real estate, only 6 flights, roof deck, balcony AND washer/dryer combo YES!!! With a New York frame of mind it is an absolute steal!
I'm having anxiety just looking at how small that place is! Wow, In Northern AZ, Navajo Mountain, my family's ranch has neighbors at least 4 miles away.
$4k for a 6 floor walk up, get outta here! F ridiculous just to live in NY ahh yea a big fat no.😮These places are empty for a reason $$$, I don’t know how landlords sleep at night.
Very well I’m sure
Hahaha yes very correct
The Bathtub and Pocket Doors and Laundry Closet!😊💖👍
I was exhausted watching you take the stairs! 😳
Oh man, super rough! Queens and Bronx got nothing on this rough Manhattan apartment! I'd be scared for my life! 😂
These brought a few spanish to my skin. I almost quit the exit rod when he drew the dresser cabinet over the window. It slows down the glass count a lot.
Between you and that South Park episode I won't be eating at Chipotle😅.
That walk up! Cash, I wish you would do a reveal video on who can afford these rents and climbs.
Supply and demand -- if people in general could not afford this apartment, compared to all others, the price would be lower!
$4000 for a cramped studio that's been cut in half and made into a "one bedroom." Hideous roof deck. Why would you want to spend any time right there? It's so ugly. Ugly view out the windows, essentially no closets, basically a tenement home. Awful.
Big no.
Bathroom in kitchen is a huge no.
Cabinet above the fridge should be 24" deep, not 12.
I love it. The stairs would be a perfect workout
