When life offers you lemons, make lemonade — and a earlier than and after video of the method.
To many non-New Yorkers, the concept of residing in a studio residence is unthinkable, the area far too small. Certainly, a video taken by TikTok person Tiffany of her new 300-square-foot unit earlier than she added any furnishings is sort of bleak.
Whereas the empty flat seems lately renovated, with a clear white paint job and well-laid wooden flooring all through, its single wall of home windows and cramped structure hardly appears ample to suit a life-time.
An after video displaying the crib post-furnishing, nonetheless, makes it clear 300-square-feet is workable.
“My 300 sq ft NYC studio earlier than,” Tiffany, who goes by @tpayne0 on the platform, captioned a quick clip displaying the empty unit, then “After” she wrote in textual content over a video panning its moved-in look.

In response to common demand, Tiffany, who calls herself “one other NYC transplant,” posted a follow-up video displaying her small however quaint toilet and going over the place she sourced her artwork and furnishings from.
Although Tiffany could have made probably the most of a small state of affairs, by way of having a very tiny unit, different New Yorkers have her beat by lots of of sq. ft.
“This provides me a spot to put my head, make meals and be on the pc,” 6-foot-2 comic Ron Ervin advised The Submit final month of his 100-square-foot West Harlem pad. “If I introduced a queen-size mattress into my New York residence, it will crush me to loss of life.”
The unit, which Ervin discovered on Craigslist and pays $950 a month for, doesn’t have a range nor its personal toilet (he and his neighbors share a rest room and bathe positioned within the hallway).
“I've a bit of countertop subsequent to the sink on which I positioned a $10 hotplate and a George Foreman grill I discovered within the hallway,” Ervin famous.
