This 63-Year-Old NYC Apartment's Renovation Lives Rent-Free in My Head
Briefly

Larry Fish faced a choice among three New York City apartments. He chose a 1962 unit that was livable but needed major renovations. Enlisting the help of architectural friends, specifically Drew Powers from DRYY STUDIO, he mapped out renovations despite challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. They focused on revitalizing the space while retaining good structural elements. Larry appreciated the simplified decision-making process offered by Drew and his team, leading to a cohesive renovation design.
"One was recently renovated but not necessarily my vibe, one was unlivable without a full gut renovation, and this apartment was somewhere in the middle - immediately livable, but definitely needing a fairly big renovation."
"Before the renovation, the apartment was nearly all original to the 1960s. The kitchen cabinets were metal and rusting. The kitchen was closed off from the rest of the apartment with swinging saloon-style doors."
