"The nicest thing a neighbor ever did for me was to give me his apartment when he left the city! One day he came down the stairs from his walkup to the street-level store where I worked. In his hand was a set of keys.

As we delve deeper into the ins and outs of vertical living in NYC, BrickUnderground is pleased to welcome a new expert columnist into our online midst.
Penny Fallmann May, a graduate of Columbia University's School of Architecture and an I.M. Pei veteran who has helmed more than 70 residential renovations as a principal at May Architects in Manhattan, will take the reins of our N.Y.C. Renovation Chronicles column.
And not a moment too soon, apparently.
