Apartment update & pics of NYU.

 We got approved on the apartment at The Octagon on Roosevelt Island! We were so relieved... The bad news is because we have to use a guarantor that lives in California, we had to push back our move in date another couple of days so he could overnight the original signed lease back here to NY. So now it looks like we won't be able to move in until Monday or Tuesday! We are annoyed and frustrated, but at least we have a place to live. After you get approved and start signing the leases, they let you stay in their guest suite until you can actually move into your apartment. So we are staying here until the 28th because someone else has reserved it then. They said they can hopefully transfer us into another space until Monday or Tuesday. My parents left last night to go see all the East Coast Capitals. They will swing back to NYC on their way back to Utah to drop off the rest of our stuff that we weren't allowed to bring into the guest suite with us. We are so grateful for all their help and patience helping us find a place to live and taking us to see a bunch of potential apartments. If you want to check out the apartments we will be living in, just go to www.octagonnyc.com. We have done some sight seeing, but not a lot. We were so focused on finding a place to live, that we haven't done much. We did go to NYU and check it out. We also walked around Washington Square which is right next to NYU. Here are some iphone shots from the NYU Law school and around that area.

This is the NYU Law Library entrance and inside the building.

Walking around NYU... I love to see fresh flowers on the corners.
