Where to live?

This is the view out the window of the place I'm staying - on the 19th floor of a landmarked tower on the Upper West Side, looking out over the mighty Hudson toward the George Washington Bridge and the Tappan Zee.

It'd be nice to live on the Upper West Side and sort of archetypal but it's not an option - the people I know who live here all moved in twenty years ago or more. Besides, I've set my sights on Prospect Heights! Indeed, I might by this evening have confirmation of a dream of a place an old friend of one of my Melbourne friends is leaving. I'll tell you all about it when as and if - wouldn't it be awesome if Melbourne found me a place in Brooklyn?!
