The Skinny: There's been a lot of bad financial news over the past week, but you can still find plenty of pricey apartments in Manhattan, obvi. But we're feeling frugal, so we went as low as we could go, searching for a cheap Manhattan studio listed in the past week or so (motivated seller, perhaps?). Sure enough, we found what can only be described by scholars as "your standard crappy East Village studio." There's a curveball, however. The listing mentions "sweet" garden views, and there's a picture of a yard, but it's unclear if the buyer gets access. So, what's the low end of the market looking like nowadays?
