Sadly, an in-unit washer and dryer is a bonafide status symbol for a lot of New Yorkers, given how rare it is to find an apartment with a hookup, and how pricey said apartments tend to be. But if the ability to do laundry in-house is an absolute must for you, where should you look?

One more option to add to your roster of cab-hailing apps just in time for the stifling and sweaty subway season: Starting this week, Gett is offering on-demand black car rides anywhere in Manhattan between 110th Street and the Financial District for a flat fee of $10. This app's big, anti-Uber claim to fame: their rates are fixed 24/7, 365 days a year, with no surge pricing tied to traffic snarls or inclement weather. The company also promises wait times of no more than five to seven minutes in Manhattan.
