For Students Failing Math & Economics

I don't need a calculator to figure out this tiny box is not 950 square feet. Is the 2nd floor missing from the floor plan?

The apartment on West 111th Street claims 950 square feet and two bedrooms in the listing. The floor plan shows 565 square feet and one bedroom. (I did use a calculator, estimating the jug-handle hall to be 8.5 x 3.)

Possibly the wrong floor plan was put in by mistake. Or maybe the 950 is a misprint. Or maybe the sellers think the students in the area are fools.

With a hefty $649k asking price, the realtors are banking that the prospective buyers don't have a calculator or a newspaper.

I do love the built-in bookcases and the North and South windows. You'll need all those windows to toss out your stuff that doesn't fit into the non-existent closets.
