Reply to comment by y0shicity in Midtown Owners Hedge on Costly Office-to-Home Conversions by psychothumbs

I know someone who lived in a converted office in FiDi. The building itself was fine, it seemed like any other luxury tower in the area, and the building's exterior was cool, but the hallways and floorplans were really weird because they needed to be long and snake around other stuff.

This building was built in the 1930s, I bet living in an office building made after they all became glass boxes would be a lot worse.

If the issue is the windows, tint that shit! For all other issues associated with glass box offices, yeah.. I've got nothing. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How quiet or noisy are these building conversions? Can you hear neighbors stomping upstairs or blasting stereos?
