Keeping it in the family!
September 16, 2015 - Reseña de Apartments.com
I LOVE my apartment! Its in the perfect neighborhood. Close to public transportation and many local businesses. Everything is so convenient. Not only is the location great but the amount of space we have is great as well(which is hard to find in NYC)! Its a converted 4 bedroom and 1.5 bathroom apartment with a full kitchen and spacious closets. I am very lucky and consider myself to have won the "NYC apartment jackpot".
A little backstory about the apartment and how I got so lucky....
After my ...
grandparents came from the Dominican Republic and living in numerous tiny downtown apartments, they decided to settle into the neighborhood of Washington Heights where they found a spacious apartment to raise their 3 children. As a lot of New Yorkers know, you never let go of a great, spacious and excellent priced apartnent! So, after some years, the apartment was later leased down to my mother by her parents (my grandparents). And after 25 years, she decided to start her own family. My older brother and I grew up in the same apartment as she did! After 2 additional kids, my parents decided to move to another state, leaving their now adult children behind to be independent. Which in term, left my brother and I with the apartment. We now live here and have managed to still keep the same apartment within our family for about 50 years! Its been great to see all the changes the apartment and the neighborhood has gone through and I look forward to many more great ones.
