Juu ya vilele vya miti ya Central Park, taa za Midtown huanza kung’aa unapoinua glasi yako kusherehekea tamati tamu ya siku nyingine kubwa ya New York. Jua linatua nyuma ya minara ya Kanisa Kuu la St. John the Divine, na saa ya dhahabu inaanza. Hii ndiyo kona yako ya paradiso. Mionekano adhimu kuelekea kusini na magharibi inakuzunguka -- hapa anga ni pana -- na ya kuvutia sana.

Sehemu ya moto inaunganisha vyumba hivi, madirisha makubwa huleta mwanga na mvuto, dari ni refu, sakafu za mbao ngumu ni maridadi, na benchi iliyojengwa ndani huzunguka meza yako kubwa ya kulia. Unapenda kuwakaribisha wageni hapa. Jiko kubwa, lililo wazi na lenye sehemu ya kula, lina vifaa vya kiwango cha juu, kaunta ya kulia, na sinki lililo chini ya dirisha lenye mwonekano wazi na wa kuchangamsha. Eneo hili la ndoto la mapishi hufanya kuwakaribisha wapendwa kuwa starehe ya kifahari. Vinywaji na chakula cha jioni kwenye mtaro wa paa, kitindamlo na mazungumzo chini. Maisha hapa ni yenye utajiri.

Unapenda jinsi vyumba vyako binafsi vya kulala vilivyojitenga na vyumba vinavyotazama mbele. Unapenda jumba kubwa la njia/korido lenye madirisha matatu angavu yenye mwonekano, linalokupeleka huko kwa uzuri. Vyumba vinne vya kulala vyenye nafasi vinajitokeza, vikihudumiwa na bafu mbili za kawaida zenye madirisha, mashine ya kufulia na kikaushio chenye mfumo wa kutoa hewa, pamoja na makabati mengi. Hapa unapumzika kwa kweli -- ukielea juu ya yote katika utulivu wenye mwanga na uliopambwa na safu za miti. Maisha hapa ni ya furaha tele.

Ikiwa na nafasi yake ya thamani juu ya kondō hii pendwa ya kihistoria, nyumba hii mpya na yenye mvuto ya ghorofa ya juu ni kama cherry ya kichawi juu ya keki. Makazi adimu na yanayotafutwa sana katikati ya jengo lenye kuvutia la Washington Irving, nyumba hii inayowakaribisha wanyama vipenzi inanufaika na huduma za mlinzi wa muda wa jengo, kabati la kuhifadhia, eneo la baiskeli, pamoja na mapambo adhimu ya enzi hiyo katika ukumbi na korido za miaka ya 1890. Central Park iko umbali wa vitalu viwili; karibu kuna Conservatory, Discovery Center, maeneo ya kuogelea na kuteleza kwenye barafu, pamoja na njia za kukimbia na kuendesha baiskeli. Mtaa huu una wingi wa mikahawa mashuhuri, maeneo ya utamaduni, elimu, burudani na mazoezi, pamoja na maduka maalumu na masoko mengi -- bila kusahau chaguo nyingi za usafiri wa urahisi. Maisha hapa ni mepesi.

Ikiwa taswira ya anga pana na mionekano ya mandhari ya jiji kutoka kwenye “ua lako la angani” binafsi -- juu ya kondō yako mwenyewe ya kawaida ya ghorofa ya juu -- inaufanya moyo wako upige kwa kasi, basi njoo ugundue maisha yaliyo kileleni. Matamu, yenye utajiri, ya furaha tele na mepesi -- karibu kwenye nyumba yako mwenyewe ya kiwango cha 10 ya kabla ya vita.
