2026-03-28T12:00:00-04:00

Nestled in Brooklyn, "The Candy Factory" is a fascinating artist enclave thriving thanks to the unconventional guidance of Ann Valentine. Originally purchasing the former confectionary factory in 1979, Ann has cultivated a unique microorganism of creativity, acting as a part-time landlady and part-time fairy godmother to the diverse group of artists who call this building home. Unlike many other studio spaces in the city, this community is defined by collaboration, support, and a genuinely loving atmosphere rather than strict financial metrics. With residents having stayed for decades, the building stands as a resilient testament to nurturing artistic passion amidst a rapidly changing city landscape.

[VIDEO] Manhattan Telescopic Apartment Grows with Sliding Walls & Hidden Bedroom

2025-09-23T12:00:00-04:00

Determined to make their small apartment work for their growing family, one couple turned their home into a shape-shifting marvel. They wanted to stay in their beloved space but needed more functionality—so they enlisted architect Robert Garneau, a master of transforming apartments.

His solution: a telescopic design that expands and contracts as needed, using sliding walls, hidden beds, and built-in cabinetry to make every inch count. The original bedroom, now a child’s private retreat, features a Murphy bed, a built-in desk, and storage that disappears into the walls. A pocket door closes it off when needed, creating a self-contained suite.

At the opposite end of the apartment, a pivoting floor-to-ceiling wall swings out to reveal a concealed Murphy bed, instantly forming a second bedroom. Another hidden panel completes the enclosure, offering privacy without the permanence of fixed walls.

Beyond sleeping arrangements, the apartment transforms effortlessly for daily life. The living room, equipped with a recessed fireplace and hidden television, doubles as a gathering space. A coffee table expands into a full dining setup, making room for dinner parties. Even the compact kitchen is designed for serious cooking, with high-end appliances integrated into the space.

[WATCH] Living in a $2600 Brooklyn Brownstone Studio: Stunning 1900 Original Details

2025-08-01T12:00:00-04:00

After 2+ months of looking on Streeteasy every day, Claudia finally found her dream apartment. "The listing photos were tragic, but I spotted the massive windows with original shutters and of course, the Pier Mirror. The home was built in 1900 and was originally owned by a doctor and his family. I toured it the next morning, became BFFs with the broker of the building, and got accepted soon after."

Claudia moved in on November 4th, 2023 and got to work making updates almost immediately. "I had the walls painted a fresh creamy white color, installed floor-to-ceiling shelves and made some renter-friendly updates to the kitchen. I love how tall the ceilings are and all of the original dark moldings. I feel like the months of getting denied by other apartments was all so I could find this place. We were made for eachother!"

If there’s one piece of advice I can give to others moving into a new space, it’s to never rush. Slowly collecting pieces you truly love is so worth it in the end. I love pieces that tell a story and hold memories.
