> Williamsburg loft where there'd literally be a shower curtain separating my "room" (which was filthy) from a dark, tenement-like space with ~12 people in it. Kitchen stuff was at least 50 years old and probably didn't work

Are you talking about McKibbin by any chance? People live there as a sort of "experience" if that makes any sense - look how New York it is.

McKibbin isn't in Wburg. It's where the people too hipster for Wburg go.

Besides, McKibbin is so 00s, as explained by Gawker: http://gawker.com/5431831/bushwick-artist-communitytrailer-p...
