## What Manhattan does to a washer.

Where washers sit in Manhattan: tower living, older housing stock, small homes.

### Tower living

A washer in a tower stands above somebody else's ceiling, so a burst hose or a clogged drain is a problem for two households at once. Many buildings require a drain pan, braided supply hoses and shutoff valves within reach of the laundry closet before they will approve the machine at all.

### Older housing stock

Houses built long before automatic washers often got one wherever a drain could be found, and the standpipe, trap and supply valves may be far older than the machine. A washer that drains slowly or gurgles is sometimes reporting on the house's drain rather than on itself.

### Small homes

Getting at the pump of a closet-bound stacked or 24-inch washer can mean unstacking the dryer or walking the washer forward inch by inch. Floor protection and a steady hand on the supply valves come with that territory.

### Battery Park City

On October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy flooded parts of Battery Park City, including its ball fields and areas along West Street.

### Greenwich Village

Much of the Village west of Greenwich Street stands on landfill, because that street once ran along the Hudson shoreline.

### SoHo

Most of SoHo's cast-iron facades went up between 1840 and 1880.

### Tribeca

Converted warehouse lofts can take a full-size washer, but its pipes may cross a long stretch of timber or cast-iron structure to reach a riser.

### Upper East Side

Co-op boards in these older buildings may approve a washer only with an alteration agreement, and what gets approved is often a compact or combination unit emptying into a sink.

### Upper West Side

The stretch west of Amsterdam Avenue from 96th to 110th Street, now Manhattan Valley, was once known as the Bloomingdale District.

Also covered in Manhattan

- **Chelsea** The oldest house still standing in Chelsea was finished in 1830 by Hugh Walker on a lot leased from Clement Clarke Moore.
- **Gramercy** Gramercy's name comes from the Dutch Krom Moerasje, little crooked swamp, after a swamp and brook that once ran in a 40-foot gully along what is now 21st Street.
- **Midtown East** Midtown Manhattan's East Side takes in the neighborhoods of Murray Hill, Kips Bay, Turtle Bay and Gramercy Park.
