A Modern Answer to the Commune
Ms. Berger prefers a bit of meat in her diet.
But late last week, the four joined forces, along with Rupert Poole, 30, a horticulturalist
Ms. Berger met last summer. As it turned out, Ms. Berger said, "everyone was willing to
compromise on their original intention because we shared a vision for a house."
Yesterday, the five plus one more, an artist's assistant and friend of a friend of Ms.
Berger's, signed a lease on a spic-and-span house with a stupendous backyard in the
Prospect-Lefferts Gardens section of Brooklyn.
"The core of what we wanted was the same," Ms. Berger said happily. "The fact that we
wanted to live together kind of trumped all the other stuff."
The house, however, comes with a basement apartment that still needs to be rented. Any
takers?
