adventures of mascarah.

I've just begun a new decade. Sigh.

I have always wanted to be "a writer" but I'm lost somewhere in the prologue...whittling away at a story I may never tell.

Likes: pop culture. my chihuahua. architecture. modern art. elizabeth street. contemporary designer apparel. food. travel. foreign films. speakeasys. live music. politics. hot sauce. surprises. running in the rain. strangers. wednesdays. fearlessness...and 100s of other random things... maybe even you.

A southerner by birth, northerner by the grace of God, I'm simply a nyc gal who is lost somewhere on my constant exploration of the city and the life,love, and pursuit found within it.

If you are so inclined... sap {at} lifelovepursuit.com

Ummm are you kidding me?
The Jane, a new enterprise by Sean  MacPherson and Eric Goode (Maritime Hotel, Bowery Hotel, Waverly Inn) that currently has 20 rooms now available for rent.  Know this: The rest of the place is a…work in progress, but walking into the Jane, you’ll immediately be  sucked into a mildly decadent, romantic vision of Old New York—think Royal Tenenbaums meets the Chelsea Hotel. The rooms are tiny (think Japanese capsule), the bathrooms are communal, but the  rates are only 99 bucks today (cheaper than my rent!), and Jane is one the best streets in NYC.Additions that are coming: two-story lobby bar—reminiscent of the Bowery  Hotel’s epic terrace—then on the huge panoramic rooftop with views of the Hudson and, finally, in a  basement pool restored to its original 1920s YMCA heyday.
Thanks in advance, boys! This is awesome. (scoop via Urban Daddy)
