EVERY habitable room must have a window; see below citation re: living rooms.<br /><br />"What is a “living room”?<br />(Source: NYC Administrative Code § 27-2074, -2058; MDL §§ 1-4, 3-31)<br /><br />• Definition: A living room is any room other than a dining space, kitchenette, bathroom, foyer, or hallway. A living room can be a bedroom, if it meets the criteria set forth above.<br /><br />• Lighting requirements: A living room must have at least one window that opens onto a street, yard, or court on the same lot.<br /><br />All windows in living rooms must comply with the size requirements for windows in bedrooms: The total area must be at least one-tenth of the floor area of the room. All required windows must be at least twelve square feet.<br /><br />• Usage requirements: If a living room is subdivided, each subdivision must comply with all of the above requirements."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-37621202183707530262017-09-15T14:16:11.630-04:002017-09-15T14:16:11.630-04:00A Bedroom has to legally have a window, not a livi...A Bedroom has to legally have a window, not a living room Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-79777689584890947602017-09-14T19:33:19.829-04:002017-09-14T19:33:19.829-04:00This place looks amazing!This place looks amazing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-84396044432592499732017-09-14T17:26:08.876-04:002017-09-14T17:26:08.876-04:00Great apartment!

A clear decorating point of view & carried out beautifully!<br /><br />PS: Just want to mention that even today, whether free market or stabilized, a "room" is legally required to have a window (not sure about a door). I've seen some apartment listings lately (both for rent and condos for sale) where that requirement is being skirted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-8355354619328196752017-09-14T15:11:47.815-04:002017-09-14T15:11:47.815-04:00I went to NYU around the same time, I lived at Jud...I went to NYU around the same time, I lived at Judson Hall. Students were always going over to the Limelight and they would tell stories about how Billy Idol was there, and that one and this one. Ha ha. It was so fun. The apartment has so much character, just beautiful. Dat East Village style is something I really miss.

I wanted to share another dimension to this project which is the inspiration from a book that is very important to me by Gaston Bachelard called "The Poetics of Space". In this book house is explored as a metaphor for mind. The table of contents is literally each space in a house from basement to attic including closets and drawers. How do we live in our homes? How do we store all that we have lived into an apartment that does not have a basement, attic or closets?
