So many people want to live in NYC -- close to 9 million of them -- that they'll grab any piece of the it and make a home. This includes the docks and shores of the city where people moor their houseboats.
The idea of living in a houseboat has always seemed rather romantic to me but it's not an easy existence -- as this article points out. You still have to pay rent for your houseboat, you still have to worry about being evicted if your marina or dock closes -- and then there's the waves.
Just another reminder that we are a city of islands, the world's greatest archipelago.
