Thanks to Regina for posting my question. Thank you also to everyone who left comments and suggestions. This apartment is a condo and we are renting it for a year so most likely we won't be mounting the TV above the fireplace especially since it'll be too high for us to view comfortably. We almost went with positioning the TV against the wine/closet wall but unfortunately there are no outlets. Since it's a rental we don't want to spend a ton of money on furniture so first things first; we'd like to purchase a large dining room table and chairs. We currently eat off little benches that double as a coffee table so having an actual eating area will soon be a luxury. We are located right near Morningside Park so if you have kids and are looking for a new spot, it's a great location especially for the value of the amount of space we have in relation to how expensive Chelsea is getting where we were previously. The fireplace is both gas and wood. We also thought about adding a small kitchen island, then have table and chairs next to it in the living dining area. It's a full floor so our baby has plenty of space in his own room although for now we want the play area in the living room so I can keep an eye on him. Thanks again for all the helpful comments.
