Small New York Apartments

The latest news to come out of the Big Apple surrounds real estate. The local Maryland movers learned Mayor Bloomberg launched a contest early this month to stir up development for tiny apartments called micro units. These New York digs are envisioned to be 275 to 300 square feet in size, with no closet space. Right now, New York City has a ruling regarding apartment sizes: the have to be larger than 400 square feet. Mayor Bloomberg said developers can ignore that rule and to build for the city's changing demographics. Households use to be larger with adults and children living as families. So that resulted in about 1 million studios and one bedrooms which is not enough for the 1.8 million one and two-person households.The Maryland moving specialists learned Mayor Bloomberg's contest asked developers to create plans for 80 micro units at a city-owned parking lot. These apartments are to include a bathroom, kitchen, sleeping and dining areas.
