My roommate is moving out and I'm looking for someone to take over his room.

A bit about me: I'm a TV writer (formerly for "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," currently for an upcoming sketch comedy show with puppets). I'm neat, I pick up after myself, I'm good at fixing things, and I don't make a lot of noise. I like going out and being social, but I don't bring people home (I have a girlfriend -- and when we have sleepovers, they're at her place).

The neighborhood: I moved here from LA a year ago and rented this place for the location. The area is full of charming bars, restaurants, cafes and coffee shops. It's close to the theater district, but out of the hustle and bustle of Midtown. As you walk west, you can feel it slow down somewhere between 8th and 9th. It's kind of the best of both worlds. The apartment is on 46th, just on the other side of 9th Ave from Restaurant Row.

The apartment: The floor plan is pretty open. Apart from the bathroom and the two bedrooms, it's one big living room/kitchen, which makes the place feel bigger. The living room has two bright windows and a good area for working or hanging out. The room's own window is a big frosted double window, about 6 feet tall, that opens onto the living room, so the room itself gets limited natural light.

The roof: The rooftop views are fantastic (there are a few pictures of it here, but pictures never do cityscapes or sunsets justice).

Laundry: There's a laundromat around the corner, less than a one-minute walk away, that does wash-and-fold for about $30 a month, folded up neatly. It's awesome.

The bathroom: The shower has amazing water pressure, and the tub has jets if you like taking baths.

Who I'm looking for: I like to keep the place pretty tidy, as you can probably see from the pics, so I'm looking for someone who won't make it hard for me to keep it that way. And someone who doesn't throw rowdy parties, unless I'm invited.

Open house: Sunday, November 15, 6:30-7:30pm. If you can't make that one, I'll do another one next week.

If you're interested, send me a message and include your phone number if you'd prefer we text.
