About Lux Living

Stuyvesant Town's Lux Living is a blog that allows outsiders to see firsthand what it is like to live in Stuyvesant Town, Manhattan's most luxurious apartment complex. The blog was started in April, 2008 by a Stuy Town ex-patriot who enjoys documenting the absurd choices that new owner, Tishman Speyer, makes in effort to pass the once quiet, middle class housing complex off as "luxury living."

Lux Living is published daily and welcomes reader contributions.

The New York Times says Lux Living's posts "focus on a paradox: inconvenience to residents as an incompetent management team installs luxuries that residents don't even want."

New York Post "can't get enough of the new Stuy Town mystery blogger."

Curbed.com has described Lux Living as a "dripping-with-sarcasm parody blog" that "we're as surprised as you, is actually pretty funny."

New York Magazine says "the ability of this blogger to keep coming up with fake news posts satirizing the gentrification of Stuyvesant Town...must not go unremarked upon."

The Villager says "one need look no further than the tongue-in-cheek blog "Stuyvesant Town's Lux Living" to get a taste of the generational warfare, which has been mounting steadily since Tishman Speyer purchased the properties in 2006."

The New York Observer says that Lux Living "is vocal about shared distrust regarding Tishman's ability to manage the complex."
