Woman discovers secret NYC apartment hidden behind bathroom mirror

by

ROOSEVELT ISLAND, Manhattan (WABC) – Just about every New York City resident has a story about finding an apartment, but a Roosevelt Island woman can probably top them all.

Samantha Hartsoe discovered an empty unit next to the unit she lived in.

There was an entrance hidden behind her bathroom mirror.

A mysterious draft is what tipped her off – she felt cold air blow on her and the air came out of the mirror.

Hartsoe made a four-part series about her TikTok about finding the apartment.

It is unclear whether the building management was aware of the space.
