I agree its really difficult to get a sense of the "vivid vintage greystone" when we only see tiny vingettes. Show us the rooms AT! Then feel free to zoom in on some interesting tidbits with in the room. Otherwise, don't lure us in with broad term that make us expect a proper greystone tour.

Don't put the tv over the fireplace. It sounds like a good idea and it solves the problem, but it doesn't work well in real life.

Move the bookcase and either find a tv console (or a dresser or something) or build in a bookcase/tv cabinet. I think building a cabinet is the best bet, and then you can put the tv on a retractable swivel arm - so that you can see it from all angles, but it tucks away neatly.

Keep your one floating couch and put the second couch on the wall where the chairs are now. Pairs of chairs tend to look better if they float somewhere.

Like pps have said, change out your drapes to something wider taller, and lighter to match your future built-in. And, a larger rug and coffee table would really help to anchor your seating arrangement. I hope that helps!

a few things looked a little flat with funny shadows - such as the hanging dress the kitchen elevation, and the pink chairs in most images... maybe its just my computer... or my eyes. :) no worries, really cute space, and really nicely done either way.
