Here at CribRater we are obsessed with Micro Apartments in NYC. They are the new hottest design trend. Micro Apartments are creative. They require phenomenal style and creativity from the renter to maximize the space. Not to mention they require renters who have the patience of a saint. We want to showcase 10 well designed and styled Micro Apartments in NYC.

You may be asking what exactly is a micro apartment. Well the answer is defined by Wikipedia as a one-room, self-contained living space, usually purpose built, designed to accommodate a sitting space, sleeping space, bathroom and kitchenette.

The trend has been big in New York City since it emerged in 2013, but 2016 has given new life to the micro apartment based on the first new developmental buildings that only contain micro apartments. The first building to open exclusively with micro apartments was the Carmel in Manhattan, all ranging in size from 260 to 360 square feet. For comparison, the average Manhattan studio is twice that size, and a one-car garage is about 200 square feet.
