The time has come - the start of the Senior Year at Stevens for 3
want-to-be Engineers and their first apartment.
Todd, Walter and Pat are setting up the apartment they will be staying in for
the Summer and the final semester before they graduate.
Should be interesting
times but time to do it.
Here we are for the first look at the apartment. 603 Adams Street at the
corner of 6th and Adams for all you visitors. (Is that Kim's car there ready
to visit)
Adams Street looking North in front of the apartment. My guess is that
they will spend more time looking for a parking space than doing papers and
homework.
Mom on the march doing inspection to see if it's OK for her "little
boy". (It got her approval). The apartment is large with a bedroom in the
front, Kitchen, livingroom and a bedroom in the back. There is another bedroom
on the side.
Todd and Walter surveying the apartment to see who would get what bedroom
Todd contemplating the back bedroom (the largest at 12 x 20 - bigger than
my bedroom)
Walter looked at the front bedroom and claimed it - something about the
setting sun and watching the street people)
That left Pat with the smallest bedroom but it has some features - It has
the only closet and a skylight and is the closest to the refrigerator and
bathroom
It's a long apartment as this picture shows from the back bedroom through
the livings room, kitchen and into the front bedroom. It's about 75 feet long.
The bathroom is small but has a walk-in shower
Todd still contemplating (or fantasizing of the future) but finally staked his
claim when he brought his "stuff" in.
They
warned the mess in their dorm room but surprisingly it was no ware near our
expectations and probably wasn't any worse than our rooms when we were in
college
Infract
when Mom picked up a few clothes it was quite neat (probably thanks to Pat)
There are some advantages to the location of the apartment.
1. You can see Willie's from the back bedroom.
2. There is an A&P a block away
3. There is a pizza delivery across the street
4. There is a produce store next door (right)
