Re: S.J.P.'s comment that "where I live each room MUST have a window....it's against code not to, for safety reasons obviously" ... It's not illegal or against code to build a room that doesn't have a window. What's improper is to claim, when selling the home (or in some other legal context), that a room that lacks a window is a bedroom. In NY, where home prices can run upwards of $800/sq ft, people have to be creative in condos and lofts that may only have windows along a single wall. There's nothing unsafe or improper about what they've done here.

To the Midyettes -- perusing your photos I had a very visceral experience of childlike wonder. The high ceilings, comfortable, eclectic furnishing scheme, vast art collection, and the sheer history of the space are the stuff that makes childhood interesting. Your home makes me very feel bad for kids who grow up in generically decorated new construction in the suburbs.

Agree with Anita83 that Seventh Generation has a horrendous, headache-inducing smell. Avoid.
