Simple life Manhattan: a 90-square-foot microstudio
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2010
- By choosing a studio that measures just 12 feet by 7 feet, Felice Cohen can afford to live in Manhattan's Upper West Side where apartments rent for an average of $3,600 per month.
She pays just over $700 for her 90-square-foot micro-studio. After a bit of adjustment, she now loves living smaller, simpler, and cozier.

every second of this feels like micheal scott showing off his plasma screen tv that folds into the wall
YES!
LMFAO
perfect
This is the best RUclips comment I’ve ever read.
Well said 😂
I cannot imagine being quarantined in this apartment.
Me neither, I was thinking that this is why NYers wont stay inside.
Lol!
Daniela Franco 9yrs later....let’s hope she moved out👍
Also without internet
Exactly I'm going insane just looking at this
I'm surprised she had her own bathroom! Usually places like this you have to share.
Agreed, using a communal bathroom & kitchen is a BIG no for me!!
WHAT
I THOUGHT THAT WAS ONLY FOR DORM SITUATION SMH
@@ratso69ful81 I could maybe handle a communal kitchen, but NOT a communal bathroom.
I was surprised she had a bathroom. A lot of NYC apts this size have shared facilities in the hall. So actually, this isn’t that bad, and she has the right attitude to make it work for her. The city is her “living room”.
The city is her “living room” lmao
Crazy that her bathroom is almost the same size as the rest of the apartment!
"8 or 9 people hanging out"?! Hanging out where, hanging out the window?
Lmao that cracked me up
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😭😭😭
😆
Savage 😂
The size of the apartment wouldn’t bother me but the space between the bed and ceiling definitely would.
True. I can live in any small space but that's how you become claustrophobic
worse than a prison cell
This is how people in Navy ships sleep.
@@Bananapocalypse I didn’t need another reason not to join the Navy, but it can’t hurt I suppose 😂😘
@@HelenaBlack80 lol glad I could help
@1:40: The bathroom is pretty big.
5 seconds later: Be careful don't hit your knee on the wall when you take a shit.
Lmaoooo. It was comical
I seriously don’t understand how living in the city could be that important to live in a house where you cannot cook
So many people are obsessed with the idea, your surrounded by a hole strangers in big cities
it's not the living in the city it's just people and city opportunities and New York is perfect for that
Or sit bolt upright in bed.
if i lived in new york i dont think i would cook
Some people work a lot and being a few minutes from work is more than worth it. People like to say taking a train to Manhattan from Queens or Brooklyn is 20 mins. It is not... I live 7 miles from lower Manhattan in Brooklyn and sometimes it takes me over 1.5 hours to get to work via train. By car it's no better either if there's traffic and you get stuck for an hour. If it takes me 1-1.5 hours to go each way for work that's almost 3 hours out of the day spent on commuting.
You can tell she is trying so hard to convince herself that this is a great idea
so right. and she didn't convince me she likes it. so sad and sloppy.
Yes. She was talking herself into it the whole time
It's human nature to rationalise their suffering
Or maybe she's just explaining how she rationalizes it because she understands that others would have issue with it.
Hahaha so true.
Harry Potter had more space living under those stairs

You can never really predict which random videos will have an awesome comment section. This is one of the best ones I've seen in a while
I actually like this apartment! She makes very good use of the space. Obviously this won’t work for everyone, but I admire the way she makes the most out of it!
She reminds me of Michael Scott talking about the condo he bought after he figured out his deposit was non refundable.....
Lmfaoooo
YES!
Lmaooooooo
Holy shit 😂
and dont forget how his plasma TV folds right in
This reminds me of Michael Scott talking about his plasma screen tv. "Sometimes I'll just stand in front of it and watch tv for hours"
Thank you, I just died a bit from laughing and crying ! :))
Lmao this is the first thing come to my mind when she starts talking about her bed.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣
"I love this tv!"
I come here from time to time when I need to appreciate my Irish farmhouse more
You live in an Irish farmhouse? How could you not appreciate that you ungrateful hag? Those things are amazing.
It was this video, and a few others on this channel that kickstarted my obsession with Tiny homes, and dwellings all those years ago. Despite my issues with this space, she makes it into a very cozy, humble abode. On a side note, the lives of artist, writers, and creatives in general, will always fascinate me.
“The great thing about NY is that you can do so many different things at once.”
Here in Florida, I can also do many things at once. Such as sit on the toilet *and* extend my leg.

I could only imagine waking up in the middle of the night after a nightmare only to sit up and whack your head just to then realize you are truly living the nightmare.
Lol
Lol the best comment 😅
When she mentioned her panic attack I was like "well, yeah. You basically live in a closet"
LMFAO
🤣😂👍
I feel like if this was like $200-$300 a month, I’d be way more than happy to live there
It’s probably close to $1,000.
In Manhattan? Probably more than $1,000. Maybe pushing $2k
It says in the description just over 700$
@@louisperron6506 but this video is also 10 years old. It seems about right for an apartment of that size in Manhattan around that time.
@@Mr.Plant1994 It's probably close to 1600 now
So not long after this video went viral, this woman's landlord ended up seeing it and found out that she wasn't on the lease and promptly evicted her. After she left the landlord then doubled the rent on this place to $1200. Insane.
Is that true or are you just making things up?
@Duck Beanie They raised the rent to $1400, and it's probably more than that now. This video is 11 years old
To sublet without landlord's approval is not acceptable, if that was the case. She did a fantastic job utilizing the limited space. Good luck to her in her new place.
Smh. I don't know what's sadder; paying $700 for this space or the long list of people waiting to pay $700 for this space.
I wish i could pay 700 for my place, id love to have her apt
Jebus christ! I only 250 a month for my studio
Chronic Slayer yeah sure
Morrison64 exactly
you live in the middle of nowhere for sur lol
Wow landlords did a really good job of convincing hipsters that living in a closet is cool
And New York politicians did a great job trashing the real estate market in New York so that demand runs way ahead of supply, driving the cost of apartments to these skyhigh rates, thus encouraging the creation of such apartments in the private sector.
And useful idiots who wouldn't know a bad idea even if it punched them in the face with a stamp that says, "Bad Idea" elects these politicians and encourages them to make these bad policies.
Landlords did that or the economy?
Ha!
I think this is more about the price. Most people don’t even live in New York for a long time, they just there to have fun for a while
Hipsters = young people that want to live in the city ? If there were other options, people wouldn't choose to live in a closet... Trust me.
That bathroom looks amazing. You actually have your own private bathroom and bathtub. That is a major bonus in a small space like that. I'm envious. Kudos! The way you organized the space really works.
I worked in NYC for many years and lived in a huge apartment in New Jersey. I left my car at home and took public transportation. I adore tiny homes, but there is no way that I would live like this.
Girl, blink twice if you need help

"I love to sleep up here". Has a panic attack the first night.
conversiamo1 I SCREAMED 😂
conversiamo1 lmaooooo this comment made me laugh really hard
I used to sleep in a bunk bed in college that was up against the ceiling. I hated it. Especially if you cough or choke at night, you can't even sit up. It's a nightmare. Like sleeping in a coffin.
conversiamo1 LOL
Todd Farkman that’s what I was thinking, I have acid reflux and sometimes I’ll wake up choking and it makes me jump out of bed. I’d put my head through the ceiling if it happened to me in that bed
don't wake up too fast or you'll end up fast asleep
hahaha good one
yeah I could never have that bed setup. for that reason alone
simple? More like cluttered cramped mess. It's fine if people want to live in small spaces.... I personally want a very small home, BUT don't call this "simple" when it's a mess.
NIGHT2PWN Listening to her talk about that bedroom made me panic
NIGHT2PWN wut
Kirsten, you have such amazing content! This is definitely a live-able apt for NYC - every kind of cuisine is right outside your door, and central park is your backyard.
I want to meet u
I'm a big guy, 6'5" 285 lbs. For me living inside this apartment would feel like living inside a glove.
I heard living in Manhattan as a big guy can be annoying. Like you always feel like your at a risk to knock shit over lol.

I thought my 200 sq ft apartment was small but after living here a year I’m actually more used to it than I thought I would be. At this point literally my only reason I want to move to a bigger place is so my cat has more space since she has to stay indoors. But she loves the loft so I don’t feel as bad.

Lol!
LMAO
Felice, What a great attitude you have. Make sure you never break a bone or get injured, because you may have problems maneuvering around.
I live a few blocks from this in the same kind of brownstone. I have about 190 sq ft. I used to live in a two-floor townhouse in a different city. I wouldn't go back to a larger place (or at least a place that large). I think some people (though a small, small minority of the pop.) just like small apartments.
“But, uh, it’s worth it”
*awkwardly smiles at the camera.
No, it’s definitely not worth it.
Many people are camera shy. It's like how polygraphs are inaccurate because there are people who tell the truth and still show signs of lying. There are people who, once they have a camera on them, forget their own name.
@Rocky Croods She has had a few books published and seems to have a decent career. She's not a financial mogul living in a sprawling mansion these days.
@Rocky Croods Yes, if by "good life," you mean upper middle class. She is not wealthy.
@Rocky Croods Because you seemed to imply she's rich. She's not.
@Rocky Croods succeeding & being rich are not the same.
You said "she is rich now"
She LOVES to say that shes a "New Yorker". All that just for this.
Mr. 8-Bit Doggo Well i love the idea that im NOT a new yorker
Exactly . You're right 👍
yeah it's a different breed of people for sure. I enjoyed it when I was 21. but I love my 3000 sq ft house and YARD which has mountain views.
Hey if you work 90 hours a week and only come home to sleep and shower and get to live and work in new york, a lot of people would be up for this, including me.
Some people just LOVE to live in a rural farm away from people
So I could be screwed. Im a total county girl. We can drag our kayaks to river from our home. I couldn’t live in the city. I definitely couldn’t do the bed. Mad props to her. Going for her dream and rock on. Always great to be positive.
LA landlord:
"Ok, rents gonna be 200k a month."
When you force the idea of living in New York . This is what it looks like. New York ain’t that special to put yourself in these conditions
Not all apartments lool like that though
I live in ny. If u want a borderline regular place the least you’ll spend is $1500 rent. A nice place is like 3k+ in rent
@@drek273 i also live in new york but in brooklyn.. And not really even the nice places are like 1,300.. Or 1,600 it depends on the bedroom

to each their own....yes i would love to have space outside like a yard or not have to go very far to go backpacking hiking but i could do this for a summer and go from there
This feels like a sort of urban apartment Stockholm syndrome.
I feel like she is desperately trying to convince herself that she truly enjoys living in a 90 sq ft apt.
Yep
@@donovanhill7367 So a permanent residence is different from a full time place? I'm a bit confused.

They prob moved out
@@mooshimooshi500 true. lol

There are so many emotions in this video. I hope she's doing well now. God bless the people living like this. And the landlords, man. The government should do something about it.

You've done a nice job of organizing what you need in a small space. Your attitude is on your side. Good luck with the book.
This apartment is no way selling me on the fact she was a professional organizer.
Laughing out loud reading this 😂😂
Yikes. I was thinking the same
Right
It explains why she is so poor
At all
"This city has so much to offer, Gyms, and coffee shops and libraries."
idk whos gonna tell her those are everywhere but someone needs too. lol.
I think she means within a short walk. There's also surely much more that she didn't mention within a short walk.
And affordable $5 for a water bottle off course
@Your Name Here If someone wants to trade personal space for being around others in a city because that's what makes them happy (e.g. maybe they like the library or coffee shop because they want to be around people), is that such a bad thing? They may not like the same things as you ... or me, for that matter. I personally love that other people like different things than me, otherwise all the hikes and camping spots would be crowded as hell.
Dosadoodle she is a loser, face it.
Oh... My... DIOS 🤣💀
I love the old TV. Great place in general
This is my nightmare. Just watching this is making me claustrophobic.
is it really worth it living in a tuna can just so that you can say that you're from manhattan....

It's more than just "saying that you're from manhattan". It's about living in the "heartbeat of New York".

Maybe because she is so laughably ridiculous
Poor man's Michael Scott, as she is known around his condo
You’ve done quite well in organizing your apartment. I live in 40 square feet an am also very comfortable. It just takes a little adjustment and planning. The only thing I don’t have is a bath. An athletic club close by fits that need.

I really admire you for having decided what’s the most important thing in your life and accepting the rest of what goes with it! I’m impressed that a bathroom could be installed in that space and also makes living small, bearable and even comefortable, the window is important also. I think you’ve done really well with the space and especially the bed, but I think we’d all like to know what the rent costs. Could you include that in the next video please? Thanks
I haven't smiled this much in a long time.
Thank you.
That bed gives me so much anxiety just looking at it. My claustrophobia is screaming
I cant breathe looking at it.
Not gonna lie if id feel kinda nice having a small space at the top of everything with 1 way entry which is where the latter was, and a rail (In this case a piece of wood to not fall off)
Watching videos etc up their would be alright
Probably kid nature kicking in, i mean as a kid you gonna say you never played in a closet, its just fun for some reason
OMG me too!!! I would have a panic attack
mia saint The whole PLACE is suffocating... no wonder New Yorkers are so tiny, the whole city is an ant-farm.
@@Mistyfgdf Yeah but you can LEAVE the closet.
Joke's on her, the landlord just rented out the broom closet for an extra $700 a month.
The landroom rented out the bathroom. The next video is of that guy talking about how great it is to live in a bathroom
Damn I could've gotten that for only $700!?
😂
Lol
Get the fuck out of here. I live in Gainesville Florida and for a fulls rent everything included with a big kitchen and washer and dryer in place I pay.$740 and is 3 times bigger
I didn't expect the comment section to be so negative about this, I actually like it a lot, although it is small of course, but hey, sounds like a dream to me anyways
“A friend recommended it”
What a friend....
The sad thing, that she could afford a 1 br apartment in Queens and be 15 minutes from Manhattan.
This is not living. This is existing
700 for a 1BR in Queens?
what? where?! I never saw one under $1,000 maybe in LI for $800 a month but never under ☹
700/mo 10 years ago sounds about right actually
Maybe she wants to be that writer that lived/lives in Manhattan. People always want to live and get things that sound “higher class”, lol.
But she's existing in... NEW YORK

Kansas Isn’t flat We have the best education system in the country, free public college for residents, and the cleanest water supply in the US. We have middle schoolers learning what you guys learn in high school through a program called Regents and many graduate by 15/16/17 (depending on their birthday) thanks to the program. Also native New Yorkers are given programs for networking purposes to increase wealth. We have a 24 hour affordable public transit system and strict laws protecting tenants. We also get higher minimum wage and plenty of tax cuts if you know how to use them.
The part of NY you’re seeing in this video and the original poster saw isn’t the REAL New York at all. Don’t buy that lie. They make the rent higher because they’re stupid and get taken advantage of and want to bring their friends but not get REAL jobs. Fuck them.
alize0623 if by clean then you mean full of toxic chlorine and fluoride, then probably. I don’t drink tap water and neither should you. You are already showing your typical nyc ignorance because your minimum wage is less than Seattle and not that much different from other cities. Anyways 15$ there is equal to what I can buy with 4$. Nyc is nonsense
Love it! What a great pad!
I think you did great with the space you own. I had claustrophobia when you went to your bed.

Major Kek that was my thought. There's definitely not gonna be a lot of kama sutra happening there.
