BrickUnderground

Okay, New Yorkers, it's time to spill. Tipping season is upon us, and as per usual, BrickUnderground is running a Holiday Tipping Poll.

Last year we delved into the tipping habits of owners vs renters. (Click here to see how 1,700 of your neighbors weighed in.)

BrickUnderground underwent a little facelift this weekend, coinciding not so conincidentally with the official rollout of our revamped resource directory, The Real. Est. List.

What does this mean for you?

We've added more than 350 NYC professionals and services to The Real.Est. List and redesigned things so it's easier than ever to locate everything you need to find a NYC apartment and live there as happily as possible afterward.

We just received the following alert from the city, and thought we'd share:  

This is an update for the residents and hotel guests surrounding the West 57 Street crane incident in Manhattan. The NYPD has begun to conduct limited escorts into vacated buildings and hotels within the frozen zone for retrieval of absolute necessities, including medication, and pet care.
