[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, we are in a building with a private terrace as you show in your choice on a somewhat busy street. It's really not great to hang out there as we thought. It's been amazing during the pandemic, but only because we can open the door and go out just get feel the relief of being outside, but not for hanging out. DH goes out there with headphones and listens to music and does email. But has to have the headphones. And seriously, it's not that busy of a street outside.

We also have a shared roof deck. I know people go up there and hang out, but it's really only single people.

Renting again isn't the end of the world if as a PP said, each of you resents the other's choice. [/quote]

This is city living. I don’t think you can escape it. Most buildings with elevators in Chicago are on busy streets. The deck in the back should be a little quieter but it’s the city. [/quote]

I hear you. I'm the poster and we are in NYC. I'm just saying that making a choice based on a private terrace and 30 something cabinets in the kitchen is really about you and not about DW. I just think that you are thinking about what feels great for/to you, and not what is really great for DW. When we first got to NYC we had an amazing walk up space. Truly magical. But man, those stairs got old. And we work out like crazy and always have. (College athletes.)

We have friends in Brooklyn in a walk-up. They leave their stroller on the first floor entry area. They are incredibly lucky no one says anything. And yes, they are madly now trying to find an elevator space they can afford.

Just give some serious thought to those stairs. If it was the only thing you could afford, that would be one thing. But both of those apartments look really nice.[/quote]
