Seeking 2 roommates for my beautiful gem on Henry St. PERFECT location, between Market St. and Catherine St., 5 galleries on this block alone, great and super cheap food, fantastic train access: F/B/D/M & 4/5/6/J/Z & N/Q/R/W, plus Manhattan Bridge and Brooklyn Bridge a short walk away.

The neighborhood is EXTREMELY rich: Chinatown businesses, lots of ungentrified low-key places, fashion industry, dive bars, countless galleries, the New York Public Library on the same block, artists studios and awesome food from $1.75 peanut noodles up to upscale Michelin restaurants. Several 24h ramen places, the best dumplings in New York, hand-pulled noodles, great pizza — everything right next to each other, coexisting. That's a real New York experience.

2 rooms available:
— 130 sq ft / $1,650/month — 2 windows and fire escape access
— 65 sq ft / $1,250/month

The apartment is spacious with a nice kitchen and living area. It's surprisingly quiet, a 5-story walk-up, with rooftop access and the most stunning view. Great vibe in the building. I like living clean and orderly. I also live a busy life and am often out and about, but having a good vibe at home is a first priority. Ready to share, ready to do my own thing kind of energy. I always cook too much and love to share food, and through me you'd have access to lots of exciting performance and arts events across the city. I like an open house policy and occasionally have friends from Europe staying on the couch for up to 5 days, hope that works for you too.

Looking for someone who brings a respectful and open living experience, I'd love to share life and learn from you.
