"To live in New York City is to embrace compromise. How else could we live as we do, cheek by jowl and in such limited spaces? I’ve heard countless brokers say, “Manhattan is an island, and they’re not building any more of it.” As hackneyed as that phrase may be, it is the reason why 20-somethings live with roommates; why dining rooms become bedrooms and foyers become offices; and why babies sleep in closets. For so many of us, living in New York City is a big enough pro that we are happy to overlook all kinds of cons."
