A Treehouse Grows in Brooklyn

In the words of Alexandra Meyn, “I think everyone has this special place in their brain — a primal nostalgia — for a treehouse.”

So she did something about it. She built a one in the backyard of her apartment building in Bedford-Stuyvesant NY. It cost her all of $400 and with the help of friends (“It’s hard for people to say no when you say, I’m building a treehouse, man.”) she made the childhood dream of so many come true.

Here'a link the NY Times article about her and her treehouse and here's a link to a fine photo essay about it.
