  • This has got to be one of the craziest apartment conversions on the planet, and it doesnt even look like an apartment building from the street. Very cool and unique to live in an Ex-Cathedral.

    What a beautiful building! I love the windows! I'm so glad they "had to work around.." the building features. Buildings like this need preservation. It's too bad that renting in NYC for most requires a roommate, or several roommates, to be affordable. I would have a problem with that. I hate most people and just tolerate the rest. 😉 so no NYC apartment living for me! Thanks for the video, Cash! 👍

    I really love the studio apartment. The brightness is like being up in heaven and actually looking out at the other parts of the church makes you feel like you might be there or on your way. Those windows are truly unique and I would love to have it. Romeo Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo? As for the larger units, they seem to lack character and the views are not as nice. Also I did take note of the higher Windows which does bring brightness into the apartment okay but just picture sitting beneath them at a table and you can't even look out the window 😉

      It's Christian to provide housing for the needy in a church that's disused. A church recently bought out millions of dollars of medical debt to be eliminated. If Christians did cool things for their communities like that more often they would begin to fill their churches up again.
      If I were rich I would probably sue the government to force them to payback wages at current minimum wage for the inmate worker program & start a tiny house building program with the help of a local trade school. The workers would would potentially get hundreds of thousands of dollars of back pay per each worker, and I would offer them the chance to walk away with a free tiny house as a tradeschool graduation award.
      If they're getting their own tiny house on their way exiting the prison system then they would want to read up interior design with magazines in their prison cells.
      I recommend people use Bamboo or white colored cabinets with Phenolic Resin Countertops which are those black counter tops you see in chemistry labs.
      If the Prisoners built their own tiny house to their specifications then they'll quickly want to cut out abusive acquiescence out of their freind circle such as drunkards who punch holes in walls.
      It would be a self feeding loop of reform essentially, If they cut out abusive assholes then they'll probably start hitting the gym to improve their own bodies, maybe the prisoners would build a tiny house extension to fit a treadmill to stay in shape during winter time?

  • @gigi1323

    I absolutely love all the apartments in this building. The layout is wonderful in all. One can easily see much thought, planning, creativity and talent went into the design while at the same time preserving the original building. Way better than what most do to existing structures by gutting and starting from scratch. Maybe more renovations should be approached in this manner. Very classy outcome. Perfection! Thank you again for another wonderful tour and Happy Father's Day.

That shared laundry room is so basic. The landlord really knew how to maximize his profits by making the tenants pay for all their own utilities except water. I don't think they're worth the money even if it is hipster Williamsburg

    I'm aware of the attraction people feel to pay nearly $5k per month to live in small space within an overall a densely populated area. I talk with New Yorkers who have moved on to slower paces of life often. Perspective, $250k can buy acres of land in relatively prestine and unpolluted environment while also being within 30 minutes of a Trader Joe's. The nearest neighbor can be halfway to the horizo, the city center would be a casual drive with a scenic lakeview alomg the way and you would own the land. So for almost the same payments for this apartment plus other cost of living, an individual can become a landlord and setup the future 60 year old self with a private kingdom.
    Renting is a nessicity while figuring out the next move.

    Just be warned, if you get the apt with the window in the closet, Cover it, like all other windows, and Make Sure It Is Locked! Because that is where your intruders will come in. I had a window like that, that I had gone through a whole lot of trouble to get free so I could open it for air in an apt without a/c. only to be broken into TWICE using That window. Because it's not a window that you see all the time, it's vulnerable.

    3:07, thats for "wall ball" as we called as kids. Play it with a tennis ball, forgot the exact rules but the way we played it if you screwed up you had to bend over at a 45 degree angle and touch the wall while the other person who last threw it got to chuck the ball as hard as possible at your ass. Or if somebody caught it without it bouncing then all the other players had to line up on the wall, ass facing up and the person who got it could beam you as hard as possible with the tennis ball
