We (like all New Yorkers) weren't exactly thrilled at the news that three different N trains were taken out of service this week after bed bugs were discovered on board. We thought the city was supposed to be winning the war on bed bugs, and that of all the places we had to worry about picking up bed bugs (and bringing 'em back home with us), the subway was safe.

We'd all like our building to be a little greener and more environmentally friendly, and we'd all really love day-to-day access to a pool. Add Sunday bagel breakfasts, a fitness center, yoga classes, a sauna, 24-hour concierge service, a rooftop garden, and a tricked-out apartment to the mix, and we could potentially be talked into this $2,300 a month studio in "green" downtown Brooklyn condo building the Toren. (To sweeten the deal, the owner's offering to pay half of the broker's fee on this one.)
