About this work
Upper West Side, a vacant prewar two-bedroom. Last evening showing. The listing said the super would be there. Instead a married landlord in a camel coat leaves a spare key on the island.
“The tenant is tomorrow.” Take the elevator and the night is just an application. If she throws the deadbolt, the empty apartment stops being a listing.
