Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / May 2008OTP - Anyone out there in NYC?
I'm trying to help my best friend find a place in NYC, no easy task these days. She is presently staying at a place owned by a friend's father who is in rehab, but he's getting ready to come home, so she has to find a place to live. She is single, presently working a temp job, which is part of the problem. According to apartment complexes, she doesn't make enough money to qualify, even though she knows she can afford the place since she doesn't have a lot of other bills. Are there any agencies that can help her? She's single, no kids, no pets, the perfect tenant. She's also getting desperate and I've run out of things to suggest to her. Thanks, Carole >I'm trying to help my best friend find a place in NYC, no easy task >these days.

It's a nice, safe place to stay, as I understand it. An intern I inprocessed some years ago had spent some time there and really liked it.

Right now she's also paying for two storage thingees. I keep trying to get her to let go of it...maybe one of these days. Carole Thanks again, Karen. She called and they are taking applications to be on the waiting list for July, so now we just have to find a place for her to stay until then :) Too bad they didn't let women stay there for a few days. I'm going to NYC in October and that's a LOT cheaper than the cheapest hotel I could find, and it sounds a lot nicer :) Carole Carole, The web site says it's $75/day with a 3 day minimum for women who are in NYC for a short stay. Says on business, but I don't see how that matters. Ann > Carole, > The web site says it's $75/day with a 3 day minimum for women who are in > NYC for a short stay.

It's family business, actually ... as I'm meeting up with my cousins who will be over here from England. I haven't seen them since 2000 so I'm looking forward to it :) I wonder if you have to tell them what kind of business you are in town for? Although the way I'll be dressing, they'll know I'm not on business. The cheapest hotel I found was $125 a night.

Ballet style flats look quite nice with about anything and you can walk without killing your feet or back. Pick navy or black and there you are! Nell My friend also found another place called The Brandon Residence for Women. She was going up there after work today to inquire and will get me an application also. I can always say that I'm in NYC doing a photo shoot, since I'm a camera nut anyway :-)) And I'll have my camera and lenses with me and that way I can dress like a photographer :)) Carole :) |
