And we don't have the right sort of electrical wiring for a dryer.  Some of the newer or larger buildings have washers and dryers in the basements.
Plus, the apartments are so small! Our bedroom has the pig cages and bed and that's about it. My son's bedroom is about 12 feet long by 7 feet (3.6 meters x 2.1 meters).
This is not our building, this is about 4 blocks from where I live, but ours is exactly like this one... Bay Ridge Brooklyn Apartment |
Oh I see! That's a shame it's so difficult to have things like that installed, but it's nice that Brooklyn's still opting to keep older buildings around!
