about our blog
We created Living In A High Rise for one reason….OK, two reasons.
First off, we’ve lived in four different high rises over the last ten years and have experienced just about everything a person can when living in a high rise. In turn, we want to give this information away to anyone who’s moving or thinking about living in a tall building.
Second off, we love living in high rises! We presently live in the tallest building we’ve ever lived in and are loving every minute.
Below is a bit more information about this blog, about us and what our focuses are.
OUR STORY
Where I grew up, there weren’t many apartments in general, let alone high rise buildings. The quiet New England town I was born and raised in consists of old, historic buildings, traditional New England-styled single family homes and plenty of nature.
The road of life eventually led my wife and I to big cities like Boston and NYC, where we traded quaint New England charm for high rises and urban life.
After moving between four different high rises over the years, we’ve learned a thing or two about moving into (and out of) a high rise building, using space efficiently, daily logistics and enjoying the high rise life. In turn, we thought it’d be amazing to put all of this information in one place where other people can use it!
