    Hi Jeremiah,

    I really like your blog! Incidentally, I also have a blog about New York, but it's primarily aimed at helping newcomers adjust. If you're interested, it's at www.newnewyorkers.info.

    Thanks!
    Sarah

    Thanks for the note on the Carlton Arms - I've always wanted to see the interior of that place.

    I love the "Rents are too High" guy. He is a one man tenant advocate machine! Plus, he also has a random thing about UPS trucks tucked right in the middle of his ranting.
