Gearóid's place was a peaceful spot in a sleepy industrial section of Greenpoint near the water. The entry had substantial double doors and a doorman, which felt secure. The building was high end with modern construction and tucked away apartments. Gearóid took care to make his apartment not feel too "lived in", it was free of clutter and had minimal personal effects. Parking was fine, I had to circle the block and look for openings but usually found a spot within 5 minutes. Just be mindful of street cleaning signage when parking and pick the appropriate side.
