They don't make 'em like they used to...



I can't begin to put into words the love I have for this apartment.
Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that it hasn't been updated, redone, refurbished, or renovated all to some craptastic 1980's or 1990's idea of what would be "better."  



These amazing photos were taken by the oh, so talented photographer, Jamie -- her blog is a *must* see.  


On with the show....


the view -- Central Park South





























Could you die for that wallpaper?!









The owner, several years ago.
She is now in her nineties.

  4. Wow, this is truly inspirational. I was just complaining to my hubs about how it is hard to see design like this sometimes...that kitchen floor is to die for.
