Strata Apartments for Vampires

There's stereotypes about strata apartments like everything else.  


You know the one - light, bright, airy apartments, with sleek surfaces, light coloured designer furniture, no clutter and immaculate potted gardens. The apartment you want to live in and the developer wants to sell you.


But even if you can find one (and keep it that way) with all that junk you really need to live with, that ideal is not for everyone.  Some people want a dark, quiet apartment without views. 


Don't believe me?  Then read this fascinating article by Constance Rosenblum in the New York Times about the vampire apartment dwellers of New York.  The people who want to live in the dark and 'light challenged' apartments because of thier work, lifestyles and budgets.

I'd never considered this alternate view and was surprised.  But, I see the appeal now too.


So, see you at your back alley window sometime soon.
