Studio apartment - pic heavy


Went to see this yesterday; had researched several and this sounded very good: location, price, and the two essentials, cats allowed and a kitchen! Very pleased, like the building (180 units )and the people. I suppose I should look at some other places but this is just what I was looking for, so am going to go with it. I have the paperwork and am on the waiting list. Plan to move in mid to late Summer, well after the op/recovery. Here's the floor plan, and some pics of the demo flat...

I think you will like one floor living. Did it have a garden/sitting area?

Looks really good. Ideal for you and Leia. Is it far from where you are now?

No wi-fi. But my Kindle has built-in, so not a problem. I will probably get a DSL for the computer instead of my dial-up. Cable is available, but don't want it; hardly watch TV except the news so the regular is fine for me. It's a 6 story building with lots of ootside sitting areas with gorgeous views of the City and Maryland. Quite near where I am; it's very near the library I went to when the Georgetown one was closed because of the fire. Living on one floor will feel a bit strange, I suspect, but I'll adapt. I wonder how Leia will feel with no porch and a smaller living space? She sleeps a lot, so sure she'll adjust too. Speaking of Leia, I asked Carolyn for some ;pics!

I assume there are lifts then Eileen otherwise you could end up sharing your oxygen with visitors

LOL, yes, two on each floor. Forgot to mention the dining room, and the common area on each floor; also a meeting room where they show movies and have speakers ocationally. A lot of things to do if you enjoy that sort of thing. It's walking distance to the Tenley subway stop.

Looks good to me. So glad that Leia will be able to join you there. Am sure it will take a bit of getting used to the flat life, but you will get there.
