Fantasy Apartment therapy

[cathexis]

Homoe:
I love the new St. Regis Residence and the loft apartment. Can you show us an apartment in Chicago with minimal sun, a good view, preferably a loft?

Furnished it with authentic Waterfall Deco furniture with an oversized round mirror vanity, chifferobe, a dresser in the bedroom, Victorian Governor Winthrop or Secretary in the living room, and a personal seven bookcase library.

I had the same furnishings in my foreclosed (2006 real estate crisis) Ft. Lauderdale townhouse. The bank told me everything was thrown away, a story I did not buy. Never did manage to locate the furniture after much legwork and many phone calls. Someone made a lot of money on my misfortune as I do not believe that the folks threw out all of my inherited antiques. Aren't they supposed to put the stuff from foreclosed properties in a storage locker? During that recession, I lost everything of value (antiques, stocks, bonds, everything I owned, including clothes and a fabulous fossil collection).

I ask you to find a picture of this because I cannot go to an antique show or see antiques in any other venue. I haven't bought a single piece since I'm scared. I can't even watch Antiques Roadshow on PBS, so please show what I cannot look at outside my apartment or on TV in front of others.
They were supposed to do much that they did not.

This would be my apartment therapy, but not quite fantasy, more therapeutic. It may help me move on from this; I'll print it if it works.

Let me do a little snooping and digging around and see what I can find out! Was it Wells Fargo bank you dealed with?

I was just reading about a young man who is renting an empty commercial use space for his apartment, in the Queens borough of New York City area.

If you click on the link above, it will take you to the news story where there is also a video that was made about his apartment. It was an old abandoned laundromat and he converted it into a residence for himself, but it’s his neighbors who look out for him. It’s amazing, his story. I won’t give away all the cool stuff about his apartment but he also has an amazing life experience that informs his life perspective and how he came into building up an old commercial space for his living quarters.
