Brian's NYC

Ever wondered what our apartment looks like? I'm not sure why it's taken me so long to get pictures of our place up, but I'm finally getting around to putting them up. I may have already talked about my neighborhood in a previous post, but allow me to set the scene a bit before you see the pictures...

We live on the Upper East Side, on 93rd St. between 1st and 2nd Ave. This probably means absolutely nothing to you. In other words, we live in a neighborhood filled with young professionals. We are 2 1/2 avenue blocks (longer than normal blocks) away from the East River. Our apartment faces north, so we get nice light in different placese in the apartment all day. It also helps that we live on the top floor (6 flights of stairs, no elevator), so there's not a lot blocking light from our windows. We have a sushi joint and a dry cleaners downstairs from us, laundromat around the corner, supermarket across the street, and a few bars within a block. One of them was even written up in Time Out New York as one of the best bars in the city (it appeared int he 'frat bars' section, but hey we'll take what we can get). We are 5 blocks away from a local subway line, and 10 blocks from an express line. So far it has not been too cold for Ashley or I to walk the extra five blocks to a more convenient and busier subway stop.

All of the pictures except for my bedroom were taken a long time ago, in August after we moved in...take a look, and then come visit and see it in person!
