They just don't build em like they used to

Every now and then a place in The Belvedere on Belmont Street comes up for sale.  The kitchen I posted about recently is from one of those units and they had an open house yesterday.  I scurried on over.  There were actually two units with open houses so that was an unexpected bonus. It's a great old building in good shape.

Here is the entrance

Look at that great old builtin vanity.  And all that light in the bathroom.

Isn't it fun?  They just don't build 'em like they used to.

In contrast, most modern apartments are just tubes with one big window in the living room, none in the bedroom or bathroom or kitchen.    Boy this must be a dark place on any but the sunniest days.  And yet they want $100K more for this.
