Animation: Curbed In this series, Looking to Settle, Emily Gould will chronicle her search to find a two-bedroom apartment.
A mad scramble ensued, some of which was documented in this very magazine. Long story short, we could not afford to buy our apartment at the top of the bubble, but some other dumdums could, and last week, they did. We now have 60 days to find a new place, which is, I realize, not the worst thing that’s ever happened to anybody.
The first apartment we saw last weekend was within a block of where I still all-too-temporarily live. It was $3,800 per month and was being shown by a personable young broker in sweatpants named Justin. He gamely ushered me into the place as its current inhabitants put away their groceries in the kitchen, which was also the living-dining room. They had already packed up most of their stuff, which gave the place a desolate feeling underscored by the building’s fluorescent overhead fixtures.
