Video: Woman Shows Off 90-Square-Foot Apartment
The below video is making the rounds today (and, no, it's not an April Fool's joke), which shows a woman giving a tour of her studio apartment... all 90-square-feet of it. That's smaller than the previously proclaimed smallest apartment in New York!

Take a look at what $700 will get you on the Upper West Side:
More of the City's Smallest Living Spaces

Zaarath and Christopher Prokop inhabit a 175-square-foot "microstudio" in Morningside Heights — and it all sounds very familiar.

The Bronx houseboat, measuring in at only 250-square-feet, really should have cleaned up ship and entered this contest.
