From Feb 1, a spot will be open in a 4-man share on the upper ease side (E 93rd St. b/w 1st and 2nd Aves). It’s a bunking situation, as the bedrooms are not large, but the common room is spacious and pleasant, and most of the roommates are very out-of-the-house, so while cozy, it isn’t cramped. The 3 remaining roommates are great people (I’ve spent the last 18 months there, and am only moving to Brooklyn because I’ve about had it with Manhattan), all quietly practicing Catholic, very space-respecting, between 23-29 years old, and fun to be around. It’s a 10 min walk from the 4/5 on 86th st, and less from the 6 on 96th st. The area, for those who don’t know it, is safe and restaurant/grocery-populated, if somewhat construction-riddled.
In short, it’s a decent arrangement, and for $625 per month (which includes internet+utilities), it’s a down-right find. Perfect for mature students and young professionals looking to save money as they live in Manhattan (not a thing many people get to do).
I encourage you to act quickly on this. Historically speaking, spots in this apt. have not been vacant for long.
