The Tiny Manhattan Apartment is Perfect for Those Who Abhor Space
Robyn Currie — December 8, 2009 — Art & Design
I generally expect every flat in New York to be cramped and tiny. And as a general rule, I am right. But upon hearing about this tiny Manhattan apartment, I am shocked at how small, small really is.
At just 175 square feet, this ‘microstudio’ is ridiculously small. The couple who own it live in cramped quarters so small, their bed takes up one third of the space. Perhaps not for all of us, but Zaarth and Christopher Prokop love the tiny Manhattan apartment they call home.
