The wallpaper around the fireplace is Osborne & Little "Mandara" in the "gilver" colorway. I should know- I have this on my wall! It's wonderful stuff. Your welcome.

I think if this had more square/modern lines and was white instead of almond, I think this would be rather nifty. But as it is... yeah, it's kinda gross and creepy-looking in a kind of anthropomor...

Well, I have mixed feelings about featuring multi-million-dollar abodes that have little or nothing to do with apartments. But I think that there are lessons to be learned about design, layout and...

trygve, I actually have a nice apartment in the city and a nice house in the country- all market rate and earned/paid for 100% by yours truly. No dank, hate-filled hole here. Sorry to disappoint...

Here is the tale of another (celebrity) leech who rented an 8-room palace at the Apthorp for $1500/month, Nora Ephron:

Mid-C-Frank, the problem is that rent regulation is actually making a comeback. City politicos have not only managed to wrestle the issue of city rent regulation away from Albany, they are trying ...

No surprise, patrick, that you are all glitter dust and unicorns.

zinka, did you have to assemble the credenza? I think it looks fantastic, but I have reservations paying over $1000 for furniture that I have to put together myself!

I think this ideas espoused in the article are pretty absurd. True, NYC has other industries, but ultimately they were tied to the wellbeing of the financial sector. Without big-time earners, lux...

...oh no... back of the line for you, buddy! This one's MINE!

kitty... I am currently in the process of installing engineered maple flooring throughout the first floor of my house using the floating installation method- you simply glue the tongues and grooves...
