Keith's Office

21 years ago - #post-renovation

Keith's Office (aka The Anti-David Room) has been done in a 70's/Blaxploitation theme. I found some fantastic vintage wallpaper on the internet, a lamp from E-Bay, and pulled out the Pam Grier movie posters that David had never let me hang on the wall.

The second floor. This is really our floor. It has Gogo's room, the family/entertainment room, and master bedroom.
Shortly after finishing the new kitchen, we saw a commercial for Martha Stewart. We were stunned to realize that we had unknowingly (I swear!) built Martha Stewart's kitchen....except we have a better countertop. But in terms of "look and feel" Martha and ourselves are in agreement. This is either very good or very bad. After spending any amount of time in the kitchen, you will be forced to agree that we nailed it. Especially on a summer day, the doors open to the backyard, everyone hanging around the island without me having to yell, "GET OUT OF MY WAY! I'M COOKING." You will soon forget you are in Manhattan. Let's take a tour through the kitchen with David, shall we?
If you want a virtual tour of the house, this is the place to start. When we bought it, it was the Bowery Mission Women's Home. Even though it's been privately owned for 8 years now, we still occasionally get visitors to the house hoping that it's still a mission home. Sad, I know.
