Sutton Street

I have talked at all about where I now reside nor about the trip from California to New York. Well there hasn't been time, it's been a maddening pace from leaving to arriving and then setting up base camp so to speak. There's a lot of pictures and videos to wade through from the trip so all the stories from that will come later. However, for right now I will talk about where I now call home. 43 Sutton Street in Greenpoint Brooklyn, 1st floor. It's pretty roomy. High ceilings, long entrance hallway, air shaft, large kitchen/living room, 2 bedrooms, one larger than the other. The building I'm not sure if it's a true pre-war building or not but the look of it is remniscent if not being the actual thing. Now descriptions are all well and good but, how about some pics, hey?


This is our building. The neighborhood is really nice and quiet. Mostly Polish neighborhood. Five bucks will get you a plate of perogies, bloody awesome.


Here's one part of the Kitchen.


All the appliances are new by the way.


This is aft of the kitchen area.


Part of the hallway obscured by the bathroom door. I swear the bathroom reminds me of closet door, it's like stealth bathroom. Small, but nice.


The air shaft from the smaller of the bedrooms.


Same bedroom.


Here's the connection from one bedroom to the other.


The larger bedroom that looks onto the street.


Got a ceiling fan on the far end of that room.


And of course the decorative fireplace.

To think this was the first and last apartment we looked at. However, of course we had to hit up the IKEA to get some furniture and such for this new place. So, here's the kitchen table.



This pic though was a random site in the IKEA. Someone other than myself apparently has a sense of humor. Hiel!


The kitchen populated and some dinner being cooked up.


Still don't have a couch or anything like that. I've got my desk situated now and I know have access to the interweb as you can tell. It's starting to become more comfortable. However, still unpacking not done yet. But chipping away at it little by little. Anyways, I figure I'd let you all see where I be now. Laters for now.
