"And how is this supposed to help homeless people? If they had $24,500 they wouldn't be homeless!!!" The idea I assume is to sell in bulk to municipalities for their social services pr...

Didn't GILT originate this business model/marketing approach? They've already created a home goods-specific area on their site.

Exactly! That first picture IS from the county public motel.

This is the size of my brother's old place in the East Village. He liked it just fine and lived in the unit for three years.

What about Amadeus?

Good. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks these rooms are not very good. They range from uninspired/bland to bad.

Nice home, but are those security bars on the windows?

Obviously, there is a BIG difference in quality and materials between the Urban Outfitters sofa and the Horchow piece. I personally would rather save up for a quality piece.

Thank you for the unrelated rant pinkorangered. Much appreciated. I mean it. I love this apartment. Reminds me of my last one in the Upper East side (loft boudoir and all). Except ...
