I have to give you great news. I was out of the country for a little overtwo weeks and when I came back, I found a letter from Penn South. It happenedthat they wrote to me just when I left, so I was late to call when I arrived(last Monday). In any case they invitedme to see the apartments last week, 14 apartments in total. I believe also they have called other 13people from the list. Therefore we all are going to be offered 1 apartment
The apartments are nicer than I expected. They are nicelypainted with plenty of light. Most of them need kitchen floors. No lighting inthe ceilings, all the lighting I guess will come from standing lamps. I wasvery impressed with how clean and well maintained the buildings are. The laundry room is to dream for. Good bye tomy old Laundromat 3 blocks from home. The management team at Penn south turnsout to be very nice and polite, so I expect a nice experience for what is tocome.
So you can calculate your timing I was on the 150’s on thefirst list – and almost 400 on the second one. (I requested no balcony – and obviouslyall the apartments I was invited to see did not have balcony)
I will be reviewing previous post to learn how others havesolved their mortgage issues, etc, and I am looking forward to reciprocateanswering all your questions.
Wow! You must be so excited! Let us know how it goes, and thanks for letting us know. It's always helpful to see how the list moves.
I think there are over 1000 one-bedrooms, so I guess that list is moving faster. There are only about 250 studios, so my list is not going to move as fast, but it's always fun to read about somebody getting the letter asking them to come look.
Curious if anyone has been offered a 1br with a balcony?? I haven't seen anyone posting about that! My # is pretty low on the 1br waiting list, but I think I screwed myself by asking for a balcony! I don't even mind waiting a while since I just moved into a new place that I love but I wish I at least had a ballpark idea. Like, I have no clue if I'll be called in 6 months or 5 years! So hard to tell!!!

Balconies are not rare at Penn South and I can't imagine that would hold up your number much. IMO, the balcony is worth it and I use mine all the time in warm weather--though other residents don't seem to use them at all.
How many 2-bedrooms are there, anyone know? And congrats eduronyc, this is amazing news!
I think the website says there are 879 two- bedroom apartments. Not sure about balcony vs. non.
