1BR second-floor apartment with 750 real square feet in a three-family west Harlem brownstone with full bath, hardwood floors, exposed brick, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. A floor-thru apartment with five windows (great cross-ventilation) and beautiful, south-facing garden views. A very clean, bright, and quiet apartment with great upstairs neighbors. Heat and hot water are included in the rent, tenant responsible for electricity and media. Pets welcome with approval.

The apartment is just above the Broodthaers Society of America (BSA), an archive, gallery, and meeting space that operates out of the parlor floor of the brownstone. Previous occupants of the apartment have been an artist and critic, a banker, a coder, a CIA officer-in-training; and a karate instructor by day/vanguard theatre producer nights and weekends.

All in all: a great vibe in a great building on an Oprah Winfrey-sponsored block. Nearby are Riverbank State Park Athletic Complex (including a year-round public pool), Riverside Park, Saint Nicholas Park, and Jackie Robinson Park (a seasonal public pool). The Hudson River Greenway bike path is three minutes away, and a bit farther afoot are City College, the Studio Museum, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Columbia University. The neighborhood also features a burgeoning restaurant scene including Cocina Consuela, one of the New York Times' top new restaurants of 2025 that is just around the corner.

The 1 train is 2 blocks away at 145th St.. A/B/C/D trains are 5 blocks away at Saint Nicholas Ave. 30 minutes to Penn Station, 45 minutes to Canal Street, 55 minutes to Grand Avenue, Bushwick.
