p.s. the view is worth it - even with the crappy camera on a blackberry the shots turned out pretty impressive. Here's one taken from my balcony.
Honestly, I don't get this place at all - everyone's obviously fairly well off in terms of cash, but half of them look like sketchy ravers (fine by me; I'm a raver / software developer who got lucky LOL) I swear to god there must be a drug dealer on every floor in West One.
Strangely, when I signed the lease too - I was expecting some crazy long lease saying what I wasn't allowed to do - but all it was was a one-pager specifying rent and term. I guess when you can afford this level of rental things loosen up a bit (i'm coming from a tiny, poor quality bachelor apartment, so its an interesting contrast.)
West One, to me, represents the epitome of what the newest generation of 20-somethings (like me) is all about: making better money than we should be, spending all of it, with FUN being the biggest priority. Damn, I hope I never get married and have to leave here!
