A Treehouse Grows in Brooklyn

                   

“Alexandra Meyn built a treehouse behind her apartment building in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Since graduating from the Pratt Institute in May with a degree in interior design, she has been unable to find an internship or a job. “I decided to create my own,” said Ms. Meyn. 

Working with a $400 budget, Ms. Meyn learned to source materials on the cheap, finding doors in the trash and buying the floorboards, paint and other items at Build It Green, a nonprofit organization in Queens that sells inexpensive reclaimed supplies.”
