ST. LOUIS (AP) _ A St. Louis man is the new tenant of a tiny apartment with a
unique layout — the kitchen and bathroom are in the same place.
Yep. The toilet, bathtub, oven and sink are all in one room. The
200-square-foot (18.5-sq. meter) apartment is in St. Louis’ tony Central West
End.
The ad and photo for the $525-per-month apartment appeared on several websites
and had people flush with excitement. Harold Karabell of S.F. Shannon Real
Estate Management says the new tenant loves it.
The 111-year-old building originally housed 12 luxury apartments. Karabell says around the time of the Great Depression, it was remade into 50 small units, the studio the smallest among them.
Toilet/kitchen combo aside, Karabell says the apartment has a lot to like,
including refinished hardwood floors and new windows.
