This week's guide to broker-speak from Veronica X. is all about location: 

  • Chelsea = Clinton
  • Historic Upper West Side = Washington Heights
  • Close to private schools = Spanish Harlem
  • Tony 72nd street = hope you like the sound of ambulance sirens on York Avenue
  • Great use of space = bathtub is in the kitchen

"Veronica X." is a Canadian by birth, an Upper West Sider by nature, and an Upper East Sider by choice and circumstance. She is presently looking to buy an apartment big enough for her family, her books, and her shoes - not necessarily in that order.
