The Alderman

In March of this past year, I moved into a dilapidated 19th century townhome in Brooklyn three days before the COVID quarantine started. Armed with trash bags full of my belongings and a crappy memory foam mattress, I proceeded to lock myself into the then empty house. The next five months were spent renovating, building out, and furnishing the home with my friends Tre & Zach at Portmanteau NYC. The end goal was to turn one of the units into a short term rental (AirBnB) geared towards creative types, and the other unit into my primary residence. Here’s a short little roundup video on the entire process, from start to finish.
