Since COVID, I’ve left my tiny Manhattan studio and subleased a couple different apartments in Brooklyn. It’s allowed me to explore new neighborhoods, live in a larger space while working from home, and importantly given me the flexibility to travel when needed to be with my family. Thank you to this community and all the hard work you put into curating the listings!

I wanted to thank you for this newsletter. Last year when I asked around about studio spaces, everyone pointed me your way. I didn't know, when I signed up for the weekly newsletter, what an invaluable source of information Listings Project would be. As a newcomer to the art world, without a built-in community, I love hearing the stories that you share and the care that you take for us artists. Thank you for all your work!

I've gotten the Listings Project newsletter and have found places because of it. As a Black man, while never being conscious of it, I was so pleased (and viscerally moved) by your removal of “safe” when vetting the listings. That word always makes me wince, whether in conversation or on paper, because it’s a euphemism. I can’t thank you enough for that. All the best and keep doing what you’re doing! You’re a valuable resource.

I had a very stressful hunt for a roommate this season. Well this year, Listings Project rescued me, sending me multiple, wonderful candidates. Next go round I am putting all of my eggs in the Listing Project basket because it has been so worthwhile. Thanks for creating a tremendous service.

I posted an ad with Listings Project for the first time in six years. The process is great, and I love how much you've highlighted and modeled equity and inclusion! It's not just buried in the fine print but front and center.

My fiancé and I are long time fans of the listings project and found one of our favorite apartments through it. You've made a wonderful community and made what's often a stressful project (finding a home) more joyful and supportive in every way. Thank you!

Thank you so much for listing my job posting. I received a large number of extremely qualified responses, and I hired a remarkable young woman who gets exactly what I need and is so good, I already gave her a raise. I wrote back to every applicant, with very kind and encouraging language, a few I asked if I can keep on file for the future.  It was a fantastic experience, thank you so very much.

I just wanted to express my gratitude for what you have created. I have found the most wonderful tenants, kind, respectful, conscientious, and creative! They have always added positively to the community and many have become friends. I’ve been loving on you guys all day so I thought I’d let you know how much you’ve eased the process and helped to enrich my/our community.
